Abstract: 
Once an adult tooth is misplaced or lost, a patient may search for its replacement in order to restore his or her esthetics and function. Clinical dentistry, in the last few decades, has remarkably developed and enhanced in accordance with the evolution of scientific disciplines and individual’s requirements and demands. Traditional choices in dentistry for replacing a missing adult tooth involve the demountable partial denture, resin-bonded dental bridges, and full or partial coverage dental bridges. Implants have achieved wide acceptance and demand over time because they have the ability to restore function to almost normal in complete and partially edentulous arches. With considerable studies available, implants are highly admitted as a good treatment choice for the substitution of missing teeth these days. While implants are widely becoming an effective choice for missing tooth replacement, the complications and risks related to them are also progressively appearing.
