Abstract

With the initiation of the concept of osseointegration, the use of dental implants has become a predictable and frequently used addition to comprehensive planning and treatment of edentulous patients. Implantology poses challenges for the dental laboratory not present in any other existing specialty. Single-stage implant surgery represents such an innovation.
