Clinical peri-implant parameters were worse and proinflammatory biomarkers were significantly higher in obese patients compared with nonobese subjects. The findings of the present study suggests that increased proinflammatory biomarkers in PICF of obese patients may modulate peri-implant inflammation around dental implants.
