Learning Content
Peri-implant and periodontal diseases are chronic inflammatory conditions affecting systemic health. This session explores biological mechanisms linking oral inflammation with conditions like cardiovascular disease and diabetes, highlights risk factors, and provides an evidence-based approach for clinicians to integrate oral–systemic considerations into dental and implant care.
Aims
To review current evidence on periodontal and peri-implant inflammation and its systemic implications, focusing on inflammatory mechanisms, patient risk factors, and the role of risk assessment in routine dental and implant practice.
Learning Outcomes
- - Understand inflammatory mechanisms in periodontal and peri-implant diseases and their systemic effects.
- - Recognise evidence linking oral inflammation with systemic conditions.
- - Identify patient- and disease-related risk factors and apply risk assessment in practice.
- - Reflect on holistic, evidence-based approaches to periodontal and implant care.
