Abstract

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root replacement and is used to support restorations that resemble a tooth or group of teeth. Although a removable prosthesis or fixed bridge restoration is a viable treatment option in certain situations, many feel the most natural method to replace a tooth is to use an implant. This article presents a series of dental implant surgery cases restoring the edentulous areas where the removable prosthesis proved ineffective in providing comfort to the patient during function.
