As the number of placed implants increases exponentially worldwide, the prevalence of peri-implant diseases, namely mucositis and peri-implantitis, is also in an ascending trajectory. Focusing on prevention and identifying and decreasing risk factors are important aspects of managing the epidemic of peri-implant diseases. However, many clinicians are faced with patients who already have signs of inflammatory disease in varying degrees of severity. Treatment of peri-implant mucositis involves addressing the etiologic factors causing local inflammation, as well as improving self-performed oral hygiene and enrolling the patient in a personalized maintenance program. On the other hand, managing peri-implantitis can be very challenging. Peri-implantitis therapy may involve nonsurgical, nonreconstructive, reconstructive, and-in some instances-explantation procedures. The aim of this report is to provide clinical recommendations and reference flowcharts to manage peri-implant diseases and related complications on the basis of expert opinions and the scientific evidence discussed at the 2024 AO/AAP Consensus on Prevention and Management of Peri-implant Diseases and Conditions.

Objective: A cross-sectional study was made to evaluate the role of local factors, including surgical, implant, and prosthesis-related parameters, in the presence of peri-implantitis.
Methods: Consecutive partially edentulous patients with ≥ 1 implant presenting peri-implantitis were included. Clinical and radiographic data were collected to characterize local factors.

Objective: This study evaluated the coherence, consistency, and diagnostic accuracy of eight AI-based chatbots in clinical scenarios related to dental implants.
Methods: A double-blind, clinical experimental study was carried out between February and March 2025, to evaluate eight AI-based chatbots using six fictional cases simulating peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis. Each chatbot answered five standardized clinical questions across three independent runs per case, generating 720 binary outputs.

Statement Of Problem: Immediate implant and interim restoration placement in the maxillary anterior esthetic zone presents challenges in achieving optimal implant positioning, esthetics, and peri-implant tissue stability. A more accurate and efficient clinical workflow is needed to address these demands.
Purpose: This study aimed to establish a fully digital workflow that combines autonomous robotic-assisted immediate implant placement and prefabricated interim restorations in the maxillary anterior esthetic region and to evaluate its accuracy and short-term clinical outcomes.

Introduction/objectives: The treatment of peri-implantitis remains one of the most challenging areas in implant dentistry, with no universally accepted gold standards for long-term disease resolution. As the prevalence of peri-implantitis continues to rise with increased implant placement, the need for predictable and effective therapies becomes increasingly critical. Laser-assisted treatment has emerged as a promising modality in surgical and non-surgical management of peri-implant diseases due to its ability to decontaminate the implant surface, reduce the bacterial load, and debride bone defects.

This consensus report presents the first official position statement of the Korean Academy of Periodontology on peri-implant diseases, issued in response to South Korea's rapidly aging population and the associated rise in peri-implant disease management. It reviews the prevalence, classification, and definition of peri-implant diseases, emphasizing that these conditions progress more aggressively and unpredictably than periodontal diseases. The report also identifies systemic and local risk indicators, diagnostic criteria, and evidence-based treatment protocols for peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis, integrating international standards with Korea-specific clinical data.
