Treat peri-implantitis: Most effective way without using a laser?
Last Updated: Mar 15, 2018
I have a case of peri-implantitis with 4mm bone loss, suppuration and bleeding on probing. The implant was placed about 4 years ago. I plan to do open flap surgery and GBR, but I do not have a laser. What do you recommend as the most effective way to disinfect the implant surface without using a laser?
