OBJECTIVE: Bacterial biofilm control around dental implants is critical for the health of the peri-implant soft tissue and longevity of dental implants. The patient's role in regular biofilm removal around dental implants is just as important as that of the dental hygienist. The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between at-home dental implant care and patients' perceptions of peri-implant soft tissue health.
METHODS: A 15-item paper survey was distributed to adult patients undergoing professional dental hygiene maintenance at a specialty dental practice within a 3-month period and had at least one dental implant. Survey items included participant demographics, patient-reported adjunctive aids for dental implants and patient perceptions of dental implant oral hygiene practices and peri-implant soft tissue health.
RESULTS: There was a statistical difference between time spent cleaning dental implants and peri-implant soft tissue health. An association was found between patients who reported spending more time cleaning their dental implants and less bleeding (p = 0.046/54%), gingival inflammation (p = 0.026/58%) and gingival tissue redness (p = 0.036/53%). Additionally, patients who more frequently underwent professional dental hygiene maintenance perceived less gingival inflammation (p = 0.001/66%).
CONCLUSION: To promote peri-implant soft tissue health and reduce oral biological complications, best practice guidelines should be implemented, including optimal at-home dental implant care and regular professional dental hygiene maintenance.
