The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of periodontal care response on long term dental implant success. Investigator's hypothesis is that patients who do not well respond to periodontal care have more chance to develop peri-implant complications at long-term. The second purpose of this study is to evaluate the influence of other local, systemic, behavioral, and implant's related risk factors
