Abstract: Photothermal therapy (PTT), as an emerging non-invasiveness therapeutic technology, has gradually gained wide attention in the treatment of peri-implant diseases with the convenient clinical operation and easy patient acception. Among them, the near-infrared light-responsive PTT provides a solution for the problems of insufficient intensity and depth in the traditional treatment modality. It also has the advantage of reducing the damage to surrounding tissues and promoting healing. In this paper, the strategies of using PTT in peri-implant diseases are reviewed to provide a reference for its clinical application in such diseases and its further development in the field of oral antimicrobial therapy.
