Zusammenfassung: | Implants have captivated dental fraternity with their attractive benefits alongside patient satisfaction. Nonetheless, success rate depends on the durability of implants without persisting symptoms. Many challenges have yet been addressed by the clinicians, be it the patient selection criteria, implant material susceptibility to microbial environment, procedural errors, etc. Evolving techniques focusing on these issues have resolved to a certain extent but research is still progressing towards perfection.
