Description
This book provides a comprehensive overview of dental implantology, a cornerstone of modern restorative dentistry. Dental implants have revolutionized the way we approach the rehabilitation of patients with edentulism (loss of teeth), helping to restore function, aesthetics, and quality of life. With advancements in implant design, materials, and surgical techniques, the success rates of dental implants have risen dramatically, making them a reliable solution for tooth replacement. This text delves into the principles of osseointegration—the process by which the implant integrates with the jawbone—as well as the latest advancements in implant technology, patient selection, diagnosis, treatment planning, and prosthetic management.
