Abstract
|
|
|
|
The restorative treatment with dental implants in edentulous patients has been a well documented treatment modality proven in experimental studies and long-term clinical investigations. The aim of this paper is to introduce the implant mediated drug delivery system as a novel application of endosseous implants. The system is composed of hollow cylindric implants which has multiple microholes for drug delivery. For this purpose, the general outlines of drug delivery system and drug delivery route is discussed briefly. In addition, this paper deals with the results of experiments done up to now and the future perspective of the system.
