Objectives To address the following focused question: What is the quality of reporting of pre‐clinical research for the study and treatment of mucositis/peri‐implantitis? Materials and Methods Electronic databases of the P ub M ed and the C ochrane L ibrary were searched for animal studies reporting on pathogenesis or therapy of either peri‐implant mucositits or peri‐implantitis and completed by dual manual searches in duplicate between 1992 and M ay 2011. Quality assessment (i.e. grading of a checklist of 20 items in different categories) of selected full‐text articles was performed according to the A nimal R esearch: R eporting of I n V ivo E xperiments ( ARRIVE ) guidelines. Results Following screening, 75 publications were eligible for the review. For publications reporting on pathogenesis ( n = 7) and therapy ( n = 1) of peri‐implant mucositis, minimum gradings were assigned to items 5 ( M ethods/ E thical S tatement), 9 ( M ethods/ H ousing and husbandry), 11 ( M ethods/ A llocation animals to experimental groups), 14 ( R esults/ B aseline data), and 17 ( R esults/ A dverse events). For publications reporting on pathogenesis ( n = 34) and therapy ( n = 33) of peri‐implantitis, minimum grades were mainly assigned to items 9, 11, 14, and 17. Conclusions This systematic review has identified missing information in the publications on pre‐clinical research for the study and treatment of mucositis/peri‐implantitis.
