dc.description.abstract | Objective:The aim was to investigate the presence of Entamoeba gingivalis and Trichomonas tenax in peri-implantitis lesions. Method and materials: A total of 141 individuals were included in this study, of which 40 had clinically healthy implants (group H); the remaining were associated with peri-implantitis (group P). Gingival crevicular fluid was collected using absorbent paper, followed by a dental plaque sample from the pen-implant sulcus/pocket using a titanium curette. The samples were transferred into an Eppendorf tube. Each specimen was divided into two parts. One part was examined under a light microscope at a 10 x and 40 x magnification to detect parasites. The other part was spread on a microscope slide, stained with Giemsa stain, and examined under a microscope at 100 x magnification. Pearson chi-square test was used in the statistical analysis of data, with a significance level of P < .05. Results: Although there was no presence of parasite around the healthy implants, two parasites were detected in peri-implantitis lesions. Out of 101 lesions, 31 (30.7%) showed Egingivalis, and 34 (33.6%) presented with T tenax. There was a statistically significant difference between the presence of Egingivalis and demographic data including gender, education status, frequency of dental visits, and brushing frequency. Presence of Ttenax in lesions was correlated with frequency of dental visits (P < .05). It was observed that E gingivalis and T tenax were mostly detected in the mandible (P = .004 and .014, respectively) in comparison with the maxilla. Conclusion: This study showed that peri-implantitis lesions were involved with E gingivalis and T tenax, in contrast to the healthy areas. | en_US |
