title: [Post-cure response in periodontal practice in Belgium].
abstract: The recall response of patients with prosthetic rehabilitation on implants (n = 530) and patients treated for periodontal disease (n = 2364) in a periodontal private practice was evaluated. The recall response over 7 years following treatment showed that (1) with time the response to treatment diminished for all patient groups, (2) (post) juvenile periodontitis patients responded poorly to follow-up, (3) patients with rapidly progressing periodontitis were most eager to regularly visit the periodontist, (4) implant patients with complete rehabilitation responded better than those with partial restorations who in turn responded better than those with a single crown on an implant.
