Clinical viability of immediate loading of dental implants: part I--factors for success

J Craniofac Surg. 2009 Nov;20(6):2139-42. doi: 10.1097/SCS.0b013e3181bec71a.

Abstract

Two-stage procedure for dental implants presents corroborated clinical success over 40 years. The evolution of surgical techniques, development of diagnostic methods, knowledge about tissue biology, and quality of implants regarding design and surface supported studies with 1 surgical stage followed by immediate prosthesis placement. However, several factors influence the treatment success with immediate loading. So, this study aimed to evaluate some factors regarding the success and characteristics of implants and patients.
