Brief Summary

Dental implants are often used to replace missing teeth. In fact, in the US over 700,000 implants are places every year and over 2 million implants are places world wide. Peri-implant mucositis in an inflammatory condition affecting dental implants and is recognized as a risk factor for peri-implantitis (a condition affecting the bone around implants and eventually leading to implant loss). The prevalence of Peri-implant Mucositis has been reported in the literature to range from 50-90% whereas the prevalence of Peri-implantitis has been reported as high as 20%. it is commonly believed that a dysbiotic microbiome is the primary cause for these conditions. The inflammatory burden around diseased implants creates a high-protein environment which is necessary for the survival of pathogenic bacteria. It is logical, therefore, that reducing inflammation by Non Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) may create a shift in the dysbiotic microbiome to a symbiotic microbiome. The aim of the current study is to test the effects of oral NSAIDs on the peri-implant microbiome.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in the Microbiome

    The microbiome profile of the Flurbiprofen group before treatment (base line) and after treatment (day 14) and two weeks post-treatment (day 28) will be compared, as well as the microbiome of the placebo group. data will be pooled and analysed as absolute number of any microbe within the tested biofilms. Measures of change will be set as 14d vs. baseline and 28 day vs. baseline.

    28 days

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • change in periodontal probing depth

    28 days

  • change in bleeding on probing

    28 days

  • change in Suppuration

    28 days
