What is Dental Implants about?
The actual failure rates of dental implants are likely to be higher than the rates published in the clinical literature. Roughened implant collars, microthreads, and platform switching are all effective in bone maintenance. Bone augmentation is effective at increasing functional surface area but does not significantly increase implant success rates. Reduced-diameter implants have higher probability of failure, especially when the diameter is 3.75 mm or narrower. Implant bodies made from zirconia have performed well clinically when their surfaces were smooth, but this material may not be able to withstand the application of roughened surfaces or sharp structural features.
