Implants for single first molar replacement: important treatment concerns.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The success rates of implants placed in the posterior region of both jaws are less than the anterior segments. Anatomic features, mastication dynamics, and adequate implant selection are all significant for long-term prognosis in the molar region. This article discusses important aspects in planning the use of dental implants in the areas of first molars.

متن کاملReplacement of a molar with two narrow-diameter dental implants
Dental implants have demonstrated a high degree of success in the restorations of teeth in partially or completely edentulous patients.
