The lack of a standardized classification to differentiate the various degrees of peri-implantitis has resulted in confusion when interpreting the results of studies evaluating the prevalence, treatment, and outcomes of therapy. The purpose of this paper is to propose a classification for peri-implantitis based on the severity of the disease. A combination of bleeding on probing and/or suppuration, probing depth, and extent of radiographic bone loss around the implant is used to classify the severity of peri-implantitis into early, moderate, and advanced categories. The rationale and method of measurement for the classification are presented and discussed. This classification should help in communication between researchers and clinicians and thus provide a better understanding of peri-implantitis.
由于缺乏用于区分不同程度种植体周围炎的标准化分类，在解释评估种植体周围炎患病率、治疗及治疗结果的研究结果时造成了混乱。本文旨在基于疾病严重程度提出一种种植体周围炎分类方法。结合探诊出血和/或化脓情况、探诊深度以及种植体周围影像学骨吸收范围，将种植体周围炎的严重程度分为早期、中度和重度三类。文中介绍并讨论了该分类的基本原理和测量方法。这种分类有助于研究人员和临床医生之间的交流，从而更好地理解种植体周围炎。
