Periodontal disease is the most prevalent preventable disease in the world and can have serious consequences for health and impact on quality of life and productivity. In recent years, the installation of dental implants has become more frequent in order to treat aesthetic and functional problems due to the natural loss of teeth. When considering the restoration of dentition, minimally invasive dentistry favors adjacent teeth, remaining intact in terms of functionality and aesthetics, restoring function and quality of life that were previously lost. It is important for the patient to understand that after a rehabilitation with dental implants, the care with gingival and peri-implant health around that implant is as or more important than the care with the prosthesis itself, as it is the peri-implant tissues that will keep the prosthesis in function in the medium and long term. I endeavored to provide an informative and interesting, thought-provoking article, limited to the non-surgical treatment of peri-implant disease, its presentation and clinical and oral hygiene protocols.
