Dental implants are valuable devices for restoring lost teeth.Implants are available in man shapes, sizes and lengths using a variety of materials with different surface properties.Among the most desired characteristics of an implant are those that ensure that the tissue-implant interface will be established quickly and then will be firmly maintained.It is especially difficult to assess whether the various modifications in the latest implants deliver improved performance.Thus far, metanalysis of randomized clinical trials finds no evidence of any particular type of implant having better...

Implants are the latest trends in dentistry and the long term clinical success of implants depends on various factors. One of the important factors among these is the appropriate selection of the implant biomaterial. No material is completely accepted by the biologic environment therefore to optimize biologic performance, implants should be selected to minimize the negative biologic response while ensuring adequate function. Every clinician should always gain a thorough knowledge about the different biomaterials used for the dental implants and judicious selection should be made before a...

Impression making is the first and foremost step in diagnosis and treatment planning. A good impression will produce a cast that will apprise the practitioner about the prognosis of the proposed treatment.It is to be agreed that time spent in making a good impression will reduce the time required in adjusting the final prosthesis in the mouth as well as make it more comfortable for the patient in accepting the artificial prosthesis. Some of the more common concerns include tearing, voids, bubbles, and tray contact, the more that are made, the greater the inaccuracy, and the more that are...

The Stone Age and Bronze Age were named for the materials that dominated these major historical periods. Consequently, the modern era, which has encountered an ever- increasing assortment of ceramic materials for industrial or biomedical use could be characterized as the "ceramic age."At the end of the XXI century, dental ceramics have been considered among the most promising restorative materials, because of noticeable prosthetic advantages.However, dental ceramics encountered an undeniable degree of resistance in the clinicians due to limiting factors, mainly associated to mechanical...
