Dental Implants have been used in a variety of different forms for many years. Since the mid-twentieth century, there has been an increase in interest in the implant process for the replacement of missing teeth. Branemark applied scientifically based research techniques to develop an endosseous implant that forms an immobile connection with bone. Patient selection is critical to achieve success. Appropriate implant use ensures the achievement of predictable success for the procedure. When considering implant applications, the use of all appropriate diagnostic data is imperative. Physical and emotional health must be optimal to enhance the placement of a foreign body into bone. Medical consultations are use to determine any systemic problems that may interfere with healing or with the patient's ability to accept the proposed treatment and maintain adequate oral hygiene. Radiographic evaluation must be thorough and appropriate. The routine use of sophisticated radiographic techniques, such as CT, is no better than the underuse of standard less elaborate techniques. Articulated diagnostic casts and surgical guides are invaluable in such a determination.
