- Crestal soft tissue thickness and mucosal attachment dimensions are anatomy-related risk factors for peri-implantitis.
- Certain implant-abutment connections and prosthesis-related factors may increase susceptibility to peri-implantitis.
- Inadequate implant positioning (bucco-lingual, mesio-distal) during surgery contributes to peri-implantitis risk.
- Lack of cleansability and convex emergence profiles in restorations promote inflammation and peri-implantitis.
- Regular intake of specific medications can disrupt homeostasis and tissue repair, increasing disease susceptibility.
- Uncontrolled systemic disorders and a history of peri-implantitis are strongly associated with peri-implantitis.
- Operator-related factors, including training level in implant surgery and prosthodontics, are risk factors for peri-implantitis.
