The successful replacement of lost natural teeth by tooth root analogues is a major advancement in the field of dentistry. The success greatly depends on adequate integration of these implants within the bone. This bone-implant integration is known as osseointegration. The science of osseointegration has widened the scope of treatment options for edentulous patients.
