Abstract: In 2017, Kochaji described two cases of cysts around the implant after implant placement, which was defined as peri-implant cyst and might be caused by surgical trauma or infection. The peri-implant cyst is often confused with peri-implantitis and retrograde peri-implantitis due to its rarity and destruction of peri-implant supporting bone. Therefore, the paper systematically reviewed the current literature on the peri-implant cyst in order to summarize its clinical manifestations, differential diagnosis, and treatment protocols.
