The purpose of the present study was to clarify the potentiality of acidic fluoride solution in treating peri-implantitis. We examined bactericidal activity of fluoride solution against periodontal pathogens; and evaluated the effects of fluoride on titanium, and the effects on cell proliferation and differentiation of rat bone marrow cells on the fluoride-treated titanium. Aggregatibacter acti...
