Dental implants play a role in providing replacement of missing teeth/tooth and restoring the function along with esthetic support in most. Dental implants have become an increasingly common & reliable treatment option in clinical practice as loss of teeth is very common. Tooth loss not only impairs the quality of life but also indirectly affects the well-being of the individual. The missing teeth affect the day-to-day activities of individuals like chewing, ability to talk (speech) which results in low self-esteem, loss of confidence, less social interactions and thus hampers the work and daily activities. The science of dental implantology is highly dynamic. This book reviews and discusses the recent advances in various components of dental implants and their size, shape, design, surface conditions, concepts, and various software used in dental implants.
