<![CDATA[Dental implants, or completely said as dental implant bodies, function as analogues of tooth roots, achieving aunion directly with jawbone following their insertion into a prepared socket in the bone. Implant system have threebasic components, namely the dental implant body that is lying in the jawbone, abutment that lies on the jawboneand the prosthesis. Dental implants may stabilize a removable prosthesis, complete or partial overdentures, and orsupport and stabilize a fixed prosthesis. In designing implant-supported removable prostheses, there are three formsof anchorage frequently used, namely bar/sleeve (clip) joints which links two or more implants, ball/cap anchoragesapplied individually to two or more isolated implants, and magnets/magnetic keepers. Implant-supported fixedprosthesis is either screwed to or cemented on to the abutment.]]>
