By looking at the chronological evolution of the knowledge on the microbiology of peri-implant disease, it can be
concluded that this process was rather
continuous over time and cumulative
in nature. Early reports pointed to a
microbiological similarity between
peri-implant disease and chronic periodontitis. Over time, additional reports
pointed to the possibility that a limited
number of cases may harbour a different microbiota, which would rather be

Principal findings: Peri-implant disease maybe viewed as a mixed anaerobic infection where Gram-negative
microorganisms, also implicated in
chronic periodontitis, seem to play an
important part. Peri-implant infections may however occasionally be
linked to another microbiota, invol-
