Crown-Implant Ratio versus Crown-Root Ratio – A Review
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 2
Abstract
The terms crown root ratio and crown implant ratio have always been a controversial topic for determining the diagnosis, treatment planning and prognosis of a prosthesis due to scarcity of evidence based research on the same. The height of the crown is an important determinant in implant prosthesis as it bears the lateral forces and distributes it to the crest thereby resulting in a favorable treatment outcome. This article will help in understanding the basic difference between the two terms and their applied aspects in Prosthodontics. Till date, no definitive guidelines have been formulated for crown to implant ratio based on a scientific research.
