Immediate Microbiological Efficacy of Electrolytic Cleaning Compared to Chlorhexidine in Peri-Implantitis: A Randomized Pilot Study
Background: Implant-surface decontamination is required before reconstructive treatment of peri-implantitis, but no protocol has demonstrated consistent clinical superiority. Objective: To compare the immediate reduction in recoverable bacterial target DNA after electrolytic cleaning and 0.2% chlorhexidine (CHX). Mater...
