OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to assess the prevalence of peri-implantitis in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients and the presence of a possible correlation between the immunological profile and serological values, of peri-implantitis, and of possible differences between all-on-4 and single crown/bridge prostheses. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: This retrospective study included 58 adult HIV-positive patients (222 implants) with either all-in-4 prostheses or single crowns/bridges on at least one dental implant loaded for more than a year who were followed for 3 year (mean follow-up). Data pertaining to the probing pocket depth (PPD), bleeding on probing, and immunological and systemic profile were collected. RESULTS: Patients with single crown/bridge implant rehabilitation showed higher prevalence of peri-implantitis (34%) than patients with all-on-4 rehabilitation (0%) (p = 0.012). Patients with all-on-4 rehabilitation were significantly older than those with single crowns/bridges (p = 0.004). Patients with peri-implantitis had implants for a significantly longer duration than those without (p = 0.001), implying that the probability of peri-implantitis increases as the age of implant increases. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of peri-implantitis was 26% in the HIV-positive patients population. No correlation was found between patients' immunological and serological factors and peri-implantitis. The most important risk factor for peri-implantitis and mucositis was implant age.
