Implant Protected Occlusion. A Key To Successful Implant Prosthesis

      Аннотация: The clinical success and longevity of endosteal dental implants are controlled by the mechanical milieu within which they function. The occlusion is a critical component of such a mechanical environment. "Implant-protected occlusion" refers to an occlusal scheme that is often uniquely specific to the restoration of endosteal implant prostheses. Implant orientation and the influence of load direction, the surface area of implants, occlusal table width, and protecting the weakest area are blended together from a biomechanical rationale to provide support for a specific occlusal philosophy. The book focuses upon the factors responsible for the favourable occlusion in the implant retained prosthesis.
