1.1 Introduction
Implant dentistry is an integral part of modern dental practice, providing a strong evidence-based option for the rehabilitation of partially and completely edentulous patients. Clinical and technologic advancements in this field have increased the level of confidence that clinicians have in this form of therapy and have also led to a broader base of incorporation into daily practice. What was once the domain of specialist practice is now a common treatment modality in many, if not most, general practices. This has increased the need for all clinicians involved with the field of implant dentistry, irrespective of specialty, to be able to provide therapy at an appropriate level of care.
It has long been recognized that clinical situations present with different levels of difficulty and with different degrees of risk for esthetic,
