Diseased implants can be distinguished from healthy implants by the presence of inflammation in the surrounding tissue. Inflammation correlates with elevated levels of interleukin-1 beta in gingival crevicular fluid. An analysis of interleukin-1 beta levels in diseased implants compared to those in matching healthy implants in 12 patients indicates that the level of interleukin-1 beta was approximately three times that at healthy sites. Interleukin-1 beta levels may provide a means of monitoring the health status of dental implants.
