The document discusses the history and progress of implantology as a field, goals of treatment, factors in determining treatment plans, and different types of implants and materials.

Some of the goals of implantology discussed are to treat patients at any stage of disease, atrophy or trauma and restore them to normal function, comfort, aesthetics and health.

The document mentions that implant treatment is determined by patient needs, anatomical considerations, medical history, financial considerations, competence of the dentist, standard of implant education, and public enlightenment.

An Overview

of
Implantology
An Observation on Evidence Based
Medicine/Dentisry
What it is and What it isn’t?
Sackett DL BMJ1996
The Transfer of Science into Practice
remains a Challenge
because Practitioners often face
Individual Patient Needs and Demands
that are not reflected in the required Rigors
of Randomized Controlled Clinical Trials
Goals of Implantology
To accept for Treatment
a patient at any stage of
• Disease
• Atrophy
• or Trauma
and with Health Permitting
restore the Patient to Normal
• Comfort
• Function
• Aesthetics and
• Health
What is
Dental Implantology
?
The Use of Manmade Roots
to support Dentures

Implantology is
Preventive Dentistry
Other than the Presence of Natural
Teeth
The Presence of Implants
is the only way of Maintaining
Alveolar Bone
After Tooth Loss
Implant Placement
is the Only Way
of Retaining Alveolar Bone
Implantology
is One Modality
used in Restorative Dentistry
Implantology must be incorporated
into a Total Overall Treatment
Plan
Without the presence of Teeth
Bone resorbes away eventually
leaving the Basal Bone

Implant Surfaces
• Machine Finished
• Microetched
• Acid Etched
• Hydroxyapatite Coated
• Plasma Sprayed
Implant Materials
• Pure Titanium

Implant Treatment is determined by
• Patient Needs
• Anatomical Considerations

• Financial Considerations
Implant Treatment is determined by
• The Competence of the Dentists
• The Standard of Implant Education
• The Enlightenment of the Public

The Contribution of General
Practitioners to the
World of Implantology
• Blades
• Ramus Blades
• Ramus Frames
• Subperiosteal Implants
• Screw Implants
• Sinus Grafting
• Bone Grafting
• Nerve Lateralization
Dental Implants are the Most
Successful Implants placed
in the Body
Implants should be thought
of as a Lifetime Device
The Prosthetic Restorations
attached to the Implants
may need to be revised
at a Later Date
Due to Wear and Tear
