The use of an appropriate implant biomaterial significantly determines the success of implants. The biologic environment where implants are placed does not necessarily accept any material. Therefore, biologic performance can be optimized by selecting implants that reduce negative biologic response while at the same time functioning adequately. Besides, clinicians should be knowledgeable of different biomaterials used for purposes of dental implants. The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview on the issue of dental implants. Some of the implants discussed in the paper include titanium and zirconia implants. Furthermore, the paper discusses how physical properties of the materials influence the treatment outcome.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
