The surgical and prosthetic protocols for a predictable direct bone-to-implant interface with root form implants were developed and reported by Branemark. However, to reduce early implant failure, attention must be brought to the strength of the bone-to-implant interface during early implant loading.Immediate loading in implant dentistry is a fairly new technique that allows certain types of patients to have their teeth removed and implants placed, along with the prosthesis, in the same day.Providing immediate implant loading requires a great deal of previous experience, as well as advanced knowledge of implant dentistry and significant surgical and prosthodontic skills.Because immediate implant loading requires the cooperation of many different practitioners, hence the importance of teamwork in the achievement of satisfactory results in success rates, function and esthetics, all of which are required for success in any treatment employing implants cannot be undermined.
