Abstract Introduction and objective: Tissues supporting osseointegrated implants are susceptible to diseases such as periimplantitis and periimplant mucositis. Early detection and treatment are important to prevent disease progression and loss of implant stability. Therefore, the aim of this retrospective study was determine the factors associated with the prevalence of peri-implant mucositis of subjects treated at the Clinic of the Master in Periodontics at the University of San Martín de Porres. Materials and methods: 318 medical records with a total of 955 implants were placed from 2001 to 2010. Of these, 212 dental implants evaluated in a total of 74 medical records were included in this study. We used the presence of bleeding on probing as a diagnostic parameter for peri-implant mucositis. Results: The prevalence of peri-implant mucositis obtained for the total of 212 implants was 58,96%. Additionally, statistically significant differences were found when comparing the groups of implants with peri-implant mucositis and without regard to the oral hygiene level. Conclusion:The prevalence of peri-implant mucositis at the University of San Martin De Porres is 58.96%. It has been found statistically significant association between the presence of peri-implant mucositis and oral hygiene level
