Background: Dental implants are a common treatment option for replacing lost teeth and edentulous instances, but their success depends on the peri-implant tissues being free of inflammation. It is important to keep in mind that some characteristics of dental implants, such as roughness, are essential for the growth of bacterial biofilms, the main pathogen source for peri-implantitis. Aim: This study aimed to investigate the polymicrobial flora inhabiting the healing caps of Full Arch Rehabilitations and their potential implications for the overall healing process and implant success.
