Peri-implantitis disease involves a bacterial build-up on the base of a dental implant, causing inflammation of the gums. If not treated early, peri-implant disease can result in the bone structure below the implant to deteriorate, which can lead to the loss of the implant.
If your gum has become swollen, red, painful or bleeding around the dental implant, it is important to see a dentist to have it checked.
