The elusive dream of replacing missing teeth with artificial analogs has been part of dentistry for a thousand years. Conventional rehabilitation of partial or complete teeth loss has limitation for many people and such devices can cause eating difficulties, psychological problems and problem related to esthetics, retention and stability of prosthesis. Treatment of tooth loss in the anterior maxilla can involve difficult functional, esthetic and psychological problems, it is need for all with otherwise good dentition. The success of osseointegrated dental implants has revolutionized dentistry. The ability to permanently replace missing teeth with a function and appearance close to that of the natural dentition has never been greater. With more than 3 decades of evidence to support the clinical use of osseointegrated dental implants, it is possible to confidently resolve that implants are predictable and provide patients with long-term functional tooth replacement. This is a remarkable accomplishment, considering the many challenges and stresses that the oral environment and forces of mastication present for dental implants.
