This multicenter cross-sectional study aims to evaluate the association between access to peri-implant probing and radiographic peri-implant bone loss. Although probing is the primary diagnostic tool for peri-implant diseases, prosthetic design may limit access, potentially affecting diagnosis and disease progression. The study will include patients with dental implants in function for at least three years and will assess clinical, radiographic, and prosthetic variables.
