Peri-Implant Analytics: Assessing the Implant Environment
This session provides a practical, clinically grounded look at peri-implant health and disease. Participants will gain confidence in evaluating implant sites, recognizing early signs of concern, and assessing both soft and hard tissue health. With a review of the classification systems, you’ll learn to distinguish peri-implant mucositis from peri-implantitis and apply comprehensive risk assessments that guide timely intervention.
