Abstract

The field of Implantology is a relatively new niche when viewed against the entire history of medical disciplines. This newer approach affords such an advantage in therapeutic and cosmetic modalities that it has rapidly become the trending topic of study amongst researchers and clinicians. The field of Dental Implantology alone has evolved into a booming hub of commerce and analysis to an extent that it has generated a revenue of approximately 4.6 billion USD. Why did a fledgling topic evolve so rapidly into a hallmark area of clinical query and application? To address that question, one must delve into the structure and function of an implant and its trending applications.
