title: Evaluation of the Removal Bacteria on Failed Titanium Implants After Irradiation With Erbium-Doped Yttrium Aluminium Garnet Laser.
abstract: Peri-implantitis may occur because of biologic or mechanical factors. It can be treated by a variety of methods. The aim of the present study is to evaluate implant surface of failed oral titanium implants after being irradiated with erbium laser.
