Abstract

Background:  Implant failure can be classified as early failure (the Osseointegration is not established) and late failure (involving a breakdown of the established Osseointegration). The implant loss can be attributed to factors such as biological, microbiological and biomechanical, but the cause and mechanism of the implant failure are still obscure. Dental implant failure has led to continuous innovations of various implants systems and to different interceptive treatment modalities. These concerns have also led to the selection of implant designs that best suit the various types of bone. There are a variety of reasons for the failure of endosseous implants. The aim of this review is to highlight the various aetiology for the failure of implants.

Keywords: Dental Implant, Failure, Osseointegration.
