Outcomes of Flapless Technique in Success of Dental Implants

Umesh Pratap Verma

Abstract


Nowadays, the clinicians basically focused on patient-centered therapy either they prefer surgical or non-surgical methods of treatment. In implant dentistry, different type of surgical techniques and various biomaterials were introduced since 1970s. The well-documented correlation between flap elevation and bone loss resulted in the introduction of minimally invasive or flapless techniques, an approach that is gaining popularity in Implantology. The present case series of two cases using MIS implant highlighted the outcomes of flapless technique in oral rehabilitation.
