The success rate in implantology is close to 96 per cent. Thanks to well-established implant placement protocols, with a few differences according to the implant system used, the predictability of the result under optimum tissue conditions is quite significant. It is very different when these conditions do not meet the recognised standards in terms of volume and quality for reproducibility in implantology. Thin ridges, for example, which are frequent occurrences, will require a long and costly process for patients, because they entail bone augmentation or possibly support tissue grafts...
