Despite extensive research on periodontitis, little attention has been given to the symptoms and perception of peri-implant diseases and their impact on oral health-related quality of life. The study aims to assess patient perception of these diseases and their impact on quality of life through a cross-sectional observational study. Patients will be recruited from the Unit of Periodontics at "Le Scotte" University Hospital and will undergo diagnosis followed by questionnaire assessments. No follow-up visits are planned, and validated questionnaires will be administered to evaluate perception and impact on quality of life. Study procedures will include recording biometric peri-implant parameters and administering questionnaires such as the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (BIPQ) and Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14).
