Implant Surface and Design

The evolution of dental implant designs is driven by scientific research aiming to successfully integrate artificial structures into biological systems. Surface roughness and composition play crucial roles in promoting osseointegration-the connection between implant and bone. Clinicians must carefully select implants based on bone quality, site considerations, and biomechanics to ensure optimal outcomes. Collagen-coated implants show promise in enhancing biocompatibility and reducing inflammation. Future advancements will likely focus on improving surface topography, surgical techniques, and collaboration among specialists to enhance implant success rates.
