Abstract
Peri-implant tissue stability plays a crucial role in the long-term success of dental implants. A history of periodontitis is considered a major risk factor for peri-implant complications, even in patients undergoing supportive periodontal therapy (SPT). To compare peri-implant clinical and radiographic parameters between individuals with treated periodontitis on regular SPT and periodontally healthy subjects. This cross-sectional observational study included 120 systemically healthy individuals
