The introduction of osseointegrated implants in the early 1980s revolutionized the approach to treating partially and fully edentulous patients with prosthetics. Successful implant prosthesis planning relies heavily on the restorative expertise of the dentist in prosthetic dentistry. While implant placement depends on the patient's oral anatomy and bone structure, the ultimate prosthesis design is influenced by the dentist's implant dentistry knowledge and past clinical experience. Achieving predictability and long-term success hinges on several factors, including selecting the right patient, performing aseptic and gentle surgical procedures, allowing for a sufficient no-load healing period, ensuring correct prosthodontic reconstruction, and providing proper follow-up care.
