Periodontal disease is an infection that causes inflammation of the tooth supporting structures, which results in the destruction of the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone, and eventually, tooth loss. The aetiology of the disease is oral biofilm. Therefore, the regular mechanical removal of
As a result of ongoing microbiological challenge from accumulated dental plaque, it is paramount to ensure thorough removal of such deposits from the root surface to maintain periodontal health. Mechanical instrumentation using conventional hand instrument and/or oscillating scalers is the gold
Peri-implantitis are defined as inflammatory diseases caused by bacterial biofilm around implant surface characterized by bleeding on probing, probing depth and eventually bone loss; if not successfully treated they may lead to implant loss. Based on the available parameters that have been reported

Peri-implant infections (mucositis and peri-implantitis) depict an increasing focus in dental practice and implantology. mean prevalence of mucositis is of 43% and periimplantitis of 22%. Consequences for the implant without successful treatment range from local reversible inflammation (mucositis)
