Recent development of dental implant materials, synthesis process, and failure – A review

In modern medicine, implants have become a prevalent solution for replacing or supporting damaged body parts across various specialties, from orthopedics to dentistry.However, implant failure remains a significant concern despite surgical and implant technology improvements. This in-depth review aims to give an overview of materials used in implants, the synthesis process of dental implants, the failure of implants, its causes, and the related clinical implications. The review explores various implant failures, including biological shortcomings (infection and soft tissue complications) and the reasons. In addition, it outlinesdifferent treatment options for dealing with implant failure. It also discusses the difficulties that healthcare professionals face in managing failed implants.The review comes to a close by emphasizing the need for more investigation into the underlying causes of implant failure and the creation of preventative measures. It highlights the value of interdisciplinary cooperation between clinicians, engineers, and researchers to raise the patient's quality of life and increase implant success rates.
