Combined surgical therapy for peri-implantitis, including implantoplasty and regeneration of the intrabony component, is effective in arresting disease progression and restoring peri-implant health.

However, this advantage comes at the expense of increased mucosal recession, highlighting the need for careful case selection and patient counseling.
