Soft-Tissue Phenotype as a Risk Indicator of Peri-Implantitis and Peri-Implant Soft-Tissue Dehiscence-A Cross-Sectional Study.

Within their limits, the present findings indicate that (a) peri-implant soft-tissue phenotype appears to be associated with the presence of peri-implantitis and PISTD, and (b) in the absence of PIKM-W, the inflammatory response seems to be dysregulated and the soft-tissue remodelling up-regulated.
