Resumen

The treatment of the peri-implantitis is still challenging, and no consensus was found in the literature on which is the best treatment protocol. Following the results of our meta-analysis, the use of dental laser does not offer statistically significant improvements in terms of PPD reduction and CAL gain if compared to conventional mechanical therapy.
