Decontamination Using a Desiccant with Air Powder Abrasion Followed by Biphasic Calcium Sulfate Grafting: A New Treatment for Peri-Implantitis

Table 1

Postsurgical clinical observations taken at baseline and 2 years. Baseline values were obtained immediately before surgery. Results are expressed as Mean ± SD and are the average values of the four areas investigated. BOP = bleeding on probing, PD = probing depth, MR = mucosal recession, CAL = clinical attachment level, and KM = keratinized mucosa width.
