Abstract:
The purpose of this review is to describe commonly used dental implants with reference to their material composition, design factors, and surface topographies. The review includes a discussion of the biological principle of osseointegration and how this process of bone-implant interaction is influenced by different implant materials, designs, and surface characteristics
