About the 聚星体育 Peri-Implant Diseases Project
聚星体育 launched the Peri-Implant Diseases Project (PIDP) in 2017 to increase global awareness about peri-implant diseases, raise periodontal health as a priority at the national level, and integrate oral health and periodontal health into general health policies. PIDP designs resources for oral health professionals to support the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of peri-implant diseases.
Just like natural teeth, dental implants are also susceptible to disease if not properly cared for. Peri-implant diseases, like periodontal diseases, have serious consequences for those affected, including problems with chewing and speaking, leading to negative impacts on well-being and quality of life. It is important to increase the visibility of peri-implant diseases as a key public health challenge.
