Anatomic factors as contributing risk factors in implant therapy.

Ramanauskaite A, Becker J, Sader R, Schwarz F

Study objectives

The aim of this review was to summarize the anatomic structures and their variations in the mandible and maxilla as contributing risk factors in implant therapy.

Key points

Damage to critical anatomic structures during dental implant placement may occur when the anatomic features of the major blood vessels and their anastomoses, neurovascular bundles, and alveolar ridge contour are not properly investigated prior to the surgery. Proper knowledge of specific anatomic factors is key to avoiding intra- and postsurgical complications.
