Micro-ATR FTIR, SEM-EDS and X-ray micro-CT: an innovative multi-technique approach to investigate bone affected by peri-implantitis.

CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that morphologic, elemental, and biochemical modifications of periimplant bone can be studied using micro-ATR FTIR, SEM-EDS, and micro-CT. The complement of these techniques can be considered a new multipurpose approach to investigate bone affected by peri-implantitis.
