ABSTRACT Introduction The aim of this study was to evaluate perfusion parameters and clinical features healthy implants affected by peri‐implant disease in patients who had undergone microvascular jaw reconstruction. Methods A total 25 with 92 placed transplants were included. Of these, 68 showed tissue, 12 mucositis, diagnosed peri‐implantitis. Peri‐implant measured mesially distally at the implant shoulder using laser Doppler flowmetry tissue spectrophotometry (LDF‐TS), followed a evaluation, including measurement probing depths, bleeding on (BOP), plaque index, biotype, type implant, restoration presence keratinized tissue. Perfusion compared between based conventional BOP–based diagnosis peri‐implantitis, associations values measurements analyzed. Optimal cut‐off for predicting peri‐implantitis calculated receiver operating characteristics. Results mean relative amount hemoglobin blood flow significantly different mucositis ( p = 0.003 0.002, respectively). However, there are interindividual differences that appear influence as well. When linear mixed regression model applied, patient random variable, difference no longer statistically significant 0.400). Still, optimal value determined be > 46.5 AU (AUC 0.788; < 0.001; CI 0.695–0.881; sensitivity 1.00, specificity 0.60). Conclusion Implants flaps particularly vulnerable disease. Risk factors lack fixed restorations, bone‐level implants, high levels. As noninvasive objective method, LDF‐TS can contribute risk assessment evaluating help detect early onset
