Abstract | OBJECTIVE: BACKGROUND:
Tetracycline is widely used in regeneration procedures owing to its positive effect with bone graft material, regeneration of extraction socket bone and its traditional antibacterial effect. However, there have been limited reports on bone graft procedures combined with tetracycline application in peri-implantitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The detoxification procedure was performed with chlorhexidine and tetracycline, and the defect area was grafted with a 4:1 volume ratio combination of deproteinised bovine bone mixed with tetracycline. RESULTS: Soft tissue healing was uneventful, and the treatment yielded improved clinical results with a reduced probing depth. CONCLUSIONS:
