Abstract
|
|
|
|
Long-term failure of implants after osseointegration, might have been associated with occlusal overload. Occlusal overload was brought by the number and location of occlusal contacts, which are under the clinician's control. Our concept of implant occlusion is based on concepts derived from traditional prosthetics. Moreover, there are few evidence on the concept or design of implant occlusion. Several occlusal design was recommended for implant prosthesis. Mutually protected occlusion, group function occlusion and bilateral balance occlusion was recommended for the specific types of implant prostheses. There is no evidence to recommend a specific occlusal design. This article reviews occlussal contact designs and offers occlusion strategy guidelines for the main types of implant-borne prostheses.
