This fully-updated Thieme Flexibook presents the theoretical foundations of implantology, including anatomy, materials, metallurgy, biomechanics, tissue reactions, surgical principles, and paraimplantal problems. The ITI (International Team for Oral Implantology) hollow cylinder system is discussed thoroughly: variations, surgical techniques, indications, pre- and post-treatment aspects, and supraconstructions. This new edition features chapters on complications and therapy for unsuccessful implants and on the microbiological aspects of aftercare. The ITI is a working group engaged in experimental research and the exchange of scientific and practical experience in oral implantology.
