To evaluate the efficacy of adjunctive/alternative photo/mechanical and physical implant‐surface decontamination approaches compared to standard instrumentation in conjunction with surgical peri‐implantitis treatment.

Randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) and controlled clinical trials investigating the efficacy of adjunctive or alternative photo/mechanical/physical measures for implant surface decontamination in conjunction with surgical peri‐implantitis treatment without (PICOS 1) or with (PICOS 2) additional decontamination methods performed in test and control groups with changing inflammation parameters were covered. Changes in bleeding scores (i.e., bleeding index, or bleeding on probing [BOP]), suppuration, and probing depth (PD) were considered the primary outcomes.

Six articles describing five original RCTs were eligible for analysis. Based on two …
