Conclusion

Implant complications can occur at any stage of treatment, from placement to restoration, and also several years after the restoration has been completed. It is important for the surgical-restorative team to exhibit meticulous pre-treatment planning and monitor patients closely during and after treatment. In order to work towards solutions to these complications, they must first be identified. Although this article highlights only a few complications that can occur in private practice, it is important for clinicians to report and share experiences in order to develop good management strategies.
