Mean±standard deviation or median (25th/75th percentiles) of numerical variables and the absolute relative frequency of categorical variables are presented separately for patients with and without peri-implantitis. The last column represents the P value of the Wilcoxon rank-sum test and Fisher exact test. Significant results are highlighted in bold (significance level P<0.05)

SIT: supportive implant therapy.
