LOS ANGELES, US: With reported cases as high as 19%, the battle against peri-implantitis has left clinicians and researchers constantly searching for ways to ensure that dental implant procedures can be more effective and less prone to postoperative complications. In this pursuit, researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have announced a new technology that significantly reduces the risk of postoperative peri-implantitis through enhanced osseointegration and removal of organic materials from the implant surface in less than a minute.
