Failures in Implantology

To minimize potential problems during the restorative phase, it is imperative that the dentist restoring the implants, after consultation with appropriate specialists, be primarily responsible for the treatment planning. This is a challenging responsibility, especially in light of the lack of rigorous scientific principles to guide a practitioner with prosthesis design and the catastrophic nature of implant failure.To reduce the risk of this failure, a comprehensive pretreatment diagnostic work-up, including defining the prosthetic goal with the aid of a wax-up or set-up and the associated ideal, prosthetic-oriented three-dimensional implant position, is crucial. Furthermore, selection of the ideal type of prosthesis, including the respective implant components and materials, is important for the clinical long-term success of the reconstruction.An implant-supported restoration offers a predictable treatment for tooth replacement.This book offers an in depth description of various implant failures and its management which is of utmost importance to a dental practitioner.
