Dental endosseous implants: an update
Abstract
The ADA Council on Scientific Affairs has developed an updated report on endosseous implants to aid dental professionals in considering and incorporating practical applications of implantation therapy in general practice.
This report addresses the demonstrated high success rates of multiple implant designs in various clinical situations, the factors contributing to elevated risk of implant failure and implantation therapy as a comprehensive process of patient care. The Council also provides a list of products available to the profession that have received the ADA Seal of Acceptance.
The Council recommends that practitioners use implantation therapies and systems judiciously in accordance with the current best evidence. The Council also urges evaluators to use common and consistent criteria for reporting the outcomes assessment in clinical studies of various implant treatments.
