What is Keratinized Mucosa and Peri-Implant Health about?
This study investigates the impact of keratinized mucosa (KM) on peri-implant health over a 5-year period, finding negligible correlations between KM width and peri-implant disease parameters. The prevalence of peri-implantitis and mucositis was noted, but no threshold value for KM width was identified as necessary for maintaining peri-implant health. The findings suggest that the width of KM may not be crucial for peri-implant health in compliant patients.
