Dental Implant Surgery and Prosthodontics
Dental implant surgery is generally considered a safe procedure with a high success rate. However there are times that even with the utmost care, latest techniques and state of the art equipment, it is still possible for complications and problems to occur. Many of these misadventures can be resolved or corrected without severe consequences but there are cases that can cause the dental implant to fail or can even be life threatening.
Careful treatment planning based on proper diagnosis and preparations as well as understanding all potential problems can help avoid such misadventures. Knowing what to do before and after surgery, particularly for the long term can provide years of relief and satisfaction for the patient.
