The use of dental implants in the oral rehabilitation of partially or fully edentulous patients has become a frequently used treatment modality in everyday practice. The main reason for this development is that critical principles for implant predictability have been established in the last twenty years. Today, researchers and clinicians of all dental subspecialties including cosmetic dentistry are working at refining techniques and extending the limits of the field. This paper is intended to point the reader to interesting publications from 1991 through 1992.
