Abstract
Implants are one of several treatment options available for replacing lost teeth. Providing a viable option for patients who are partially or fully edentulous, dental implants have significantly changed oral rehabilitation. Dental implants are available in different materials with different types of treatments.Even though implant-supported prostheses have been shown to have high success rates, a small percentage still fail. Advancements in dental technology have revolutionized the way dental implants are designed and implemented. Porous Tantalum Trabecular Metal (PTTM) has been utilised in dental implants. Trabecular implant is a type of dental implant which has porous surface and similarity closer towards the bone microstructures, which allows for ingrowth and overgrowth of bone allowing for a better osseointegration.The excellent frictional characteristics of the porous tantalum material could improve implant stability against the surrounding bone. This article explores the features, benefits and applications of trabecular implants highlighting their potential to transform the future implant dentistry.
