Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A review is given of current dental implants, as divided in permucosal and nonpermucosal applications. Each has its own material requirements, and therefore the various biomaterials currently used are discussed separately. The conclusion is that bioactive ceramics made of calcium phosphate, and where necessary reinforced with metals, will be the material of choice for future dental implants.
