Two-component transdental implants.
Transdental implantation is a procedure of tooth stabilization in maxillary and/or mandibular bone. Indications for use of these implants are root fractures, chronic periapical inflammations and periodontal disease. Transdental implants have been used in the Clinic for Maxillofacial Surgery since 1977. In the period of 20 years of treatment 490 two-component transdental implants have been inserted and failure rate was 9% (43). Considering our experience and that of other authors we can conclude that with proper indications and sophisticated surgical technique the use of this type of implants has favorable survival rate.
