PERI-EDU Establishes a National University Partner Network in Poland
The PERI-EDU project has established a National University Partner Network in Poland, connecting leading academic centres in Warsaw, Szczecin, Poznan, Krakow, Bialystok and Wroclaw. The network brings together university units representing oral surgery and periodontology around a shared objective: integrating current, evidence-based knowledge about peri-implant diseases into undergraduate dental education. Written confirmations of participation have […]
PERI-EDU Expands Its International Network Through Cooperation with Prof. Preetinder Singh
The PERI-EDU project has expanded its international cooperation network through a new agreement with Periimplantitis Epicenter Concept, represented by Prof. Preetinder Singh, BDS, MDS. The cooperation creates a framework for joint educational, scientific and clinical activities devoted to peri-implantitis, periodontology, oral implantology and evidence-based dental education. It also strengthens the international reach of educational resources […]
Designing Long-Term Peri-implant Health: Prevention, Treatment Sequencing and Supportive Care
PERI-EDU University Education Peri-implant health is designed before implant placement and protected throughout function. Prevention, early detection, sequential treatment and structured supportive care form one continuous clinical pathway. Prevention begins before implant placement Implant planning should address periodontal stability, plaque control, smoking, glycaemic status, anatomy, tissue phenotype and the patient’s ability to maintain the future […]
Titanium at the Peri-implant Interface: Corrosion, Wear and Particle Biology
PERI-EDU University Education Titanium is highly corrosion resistant, but it is not completely inert. Ions and particles can arise during placement, function, maintenance or treatment. Their presence can influence cells, yet detection alone does not prove that titanium caused peri-implantitis. Passivation protects titanium Titanium rapidly forms a thin oxide film when exposed to oxygen and […]
Primary Stability Without Overcompression: Insertion Torque, Bone Mechanics and Loading Decisions
PERI-EDU University Education Insertion torque is one measure of rotational resistance at placement. It helps describe primary stability but does not independently predict osseointegration. The objective is adequate stability with preservation of bone vitality, not the highest possible torque. Primary stability is mechanical Primary stability is the mechanical resistance of an implant immediately after placement. […]
Reading Jawbone Quality on CBCT: Architecture, Grey Values and Diagnostic Limits
PERI-EDU University Education CBCT provides high-value three-dimensional information about anatomy and mineralized structure. It does not provide universal Hounsfield units, directly measure marrow fat or independently predict biological healing. Interpretation must integrate image quality, clinical findings and the purpose of the examination. What CBCT can show reliably Cone beam computed tomography reconstructs a three-dimensional volume […]
Systemic Immune Disease and Cancer in Implant Care: Risk, Timing and Diagnostic Vigilance
PERI-EDU University Education A diagnosis label alone rarely determines implant suitability. Disease activity, oral manifestations, current treatment, healing capacity and the planned procedure define the clinical risk. Persistent or atypical peri-implant lesions require a wider differential diagnosis. Risk begins with the current clinical state Autoimmune disorders and cancer-related conditions are heterogeneous. The same diagnosis can […]
Osteoporosis and Long-Term Implant Stability: From Bone Fragility to Antiresorptive Care
PERI-EDU University Education Osteoporosis and antiresorptive exposure are related but distinct clinical variables. Osteoporosis alone does not automatically contraindicate implant treatment. Medicine indication, dose, schedule, comorbidity and long-term peri-implant inflammation can change the risk profile. Systemic fragility and local jaw conditions Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disorder characterized by reduced bone strength and increased fracture […]
Vitamin D and the Bone-Immune Interface in Implant Healing
PERI-EDU University Education Vitamin D participates in mineral homeostasis, immune regulation and bone remodelling. This biological relevance does not justify routine testing of every implant candidate, a universal dental target or high-dose supplementation without a medical indication. Vitamin D physiology in context Vitamin D is a fat-soluble prohormone obtained through cutaneous synthesis, food and supplements. […]
