Abstract: Objective To compare the clinical effects of minocycline hydrochloride and iodine glycerin on peri-implantitis. Methods Sixty patients with 65 dental implants suffering from dental peri-implantitis were chosen. After scaling, all implants were randomly assigned to 2 groups: local application with minocycline hydrochloride or iodine glycerin. Parameters including plaque index (PLI), sulcular bleeding index (SBI) and probing depth (PD) of pockets were measured at base line, 1, 3 and 6 weeks after treatment. Results PLI, SBI and PD decreased significantly after the two treatments, but the effect of minocycline hydrochloride treatment was lasting longer than the control. Conclusion Local application with minocycline hydrochloride is effective for dental peri-implantitis.

Key words: peri-implantitis, minocycline hydrochloride, iodine glycerin
