Occlusion in Implant Dentistry. Principles and Occlusal Considerations in Implant Dentistry

      Аннотация: The various consequences that can be encountered during the process of implant therapy are implant failure, early crestal bone loss, screw loosening, uncemented restorations, component failure, porcelain fracture, prosthesis fracture, and peri-implant disease. An Implant protected occlusion scheme addresses several conditions to minimize overload on bone/implant interfaces and implant prostheses, thus restricting implant loads within physiological limits. Good understanding of the differences between occlusal loading on natural teeth and dental implants should be well understood by the clinician. This can help to place and restore the implant in a favorable way and reduce mechanical or biological complications that might happen subsequently. The guidelines need to be implemented in specific conditions to decrease stresses and develop an occlusal scheme to allow the restoration to function in harmony with the rest of the stomatognathic system and to maximize the longevity of the implants and prosthesis. This book contains a brief literature on Implant Occlusion
