HOW DO PERI-IMPLANT BIOLOGIC PARAMETERS CORRESPOND WITH IMPLANT SURVIVAL AND PERI-IMPLANTITIS? A CRITICAL REVIEW
the other hand, mean BoP showed a large range (4.7%–95%) irrespective of mean bone loss or mean PD (Figure 3c).
Figure 3: (a) Mean bone loss (mm) in relation to the reported prevalence of peri‐implantitis (%); r = −0.07 (negligible correlation). (b) Mean bone loss (mm) in relation to probing pocket depth (mm); r = −0.15 (negligible correlation). (C) Mean bone loss (mm) in relation to bleeding on probing (%): r = −0.06 (negligible correlation); the size of the bullets reflects the number of implants reported in the treatment group; the number in the bullets refers to the article number provided in Table 1
