Microbiota and clinical outcomes of implant‐supported full‐mandible dentures on patients with a history of periodontitis: A 5‐year prospective cohort study

The microbiota of dental implants was found to be different from the remaining teeth in patients with a history of periodontitis. Significant microbial shifts occurred in the microbiota of implants after 5 years of function; nonetheless, the microbiological changes did not impact clinical outcomes, which were consistent with health throughout the follow-up period.
