Office Setup and Case Selection

Introduction

Implant Dentistry has seen a shift towards respecting biology and achieving predictable results in the final restoration.

Creating a Stable Environment

Success in implant restorations relies on creating a stable environment for all tissues, particularly soft tissues.

The Importance of Bone

Bone is necessary for predictability and stability in the soft tissue, and the implant must be biologically compatible and correctly positioned for aesthetically and functionally stable results.

Effective Communication and Patient Education

Patient acceptance of the final result is crucial, and effective communication and patient education play a role in achieving this.

Confidence and Predictability

Restorative dentists need confidence in their ability to restore to the patient’s satisfaction and should be able to predict and discuss potential outcomes with the patient based on the surgical complexities and implant placement.

Conclusion

In conclusion, successful implant restorations require a focus on biology, stability, patient education, and effective communication. Restorative dentists play a pivotal role in achieving optimal results.
