This double arm, split-mouth, single centre, controlled, randomised clinical study is designed to examine the effect of implantoplasty in treatment of peri-implantitis. Peri-implantitis will be treated with open flap debridement, with or without implantoplasty.

Implantoplasty is the mechanical smoothening of rough titanium implants as part of the surgical treatment of peri-implantitis. Treatment is thought to facilitate self-performed oral hygiene.

Changes in patient-reported quality of life (QoL)
To assess QoL changes related to mouth and teeth prior to therapy to after therapy by the use of "The Oral Impacts on Daily Performance (OIDP)" instrument. Each question is assessed by a 5-point scale; (1) never affected; (2) less than once a month; (3) once or twice a month; (4) once or twice a week; and (5) every or nearly every day. The higher number represents more severe impact on quality of life; e.g. worse outcome. Each item will be dichotomised yielding the categories (A) affected; including scale categories (2)-(5), and (B) unaffected; including category (1)
