Dental implants are a safe and effective solution for the prosthetic rehabilitation of partially and totally edentulous patients, as has been clearly demonstrated by several clinical articles with follow-up up > 20 years. The high percentage of long-term survival (> 95% at 10 years) that characterizes dental implants has made them an essential tool in modern dentistry, and today, implants are commonly used to support various types of prosthetic rehabilitation, such as fixed prostheses (single crowns, fixed partial dentures, fixed full arches) and removable dentures. If we analyse an implant-fixed prosthetic restoration, it is possible to identify three critical levels or interfaces: 1. Bone/implant interface 2. Implant/abutment interface 3. Restoration/mucosa interface The strengthening of each of these three interfaces is of fundamental importance in the ability to ensure the survival, biological integration, functional stability and aesthetic success of a prosthetic implant-supported restoration.

Abstract
Dental implants are a safe and effective solution for the prosthetic rehabilitation of partially and totally edentulous patients, as has been clearly demonstrated by several clinical articles with follow-up up > 20 years. The high percentage of long-term survival (> 95% at 10 years) that characterizes dental implants has made them an essential tool in modern dentistry, and today, implants are commonly used to support various types of prosthetic rehabilitation, such as fixed prostheses (single crowns, fixed partial dentures, fixed full arches) and removable dentures. If we analyse an implant-fixed prosthetic restoration, it is possible to identify three critical levels or interfaces: 1. Bone/implant interface 2. Implant/abutment interface 3. Restoration/mucosa interface The strengthening of each of these three interfaces is of fundamental importance in the ability to ensure the survival, biological integration, functional stability and aesthetic success of a prosthetic implant-supported restoration.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
