Sažetak
The increasing use of dental implants in everyday dental practice, and the systematic and documented years of monitoring patients with implanted and prosthetically supplied dental implants, leads to frequent confrontations of the therapist with different kinds of complications, and also failures.
Although complications and failures are not the same, they are closely connected in dental implantology. However, not every complication necessarily leads to failure. Thus every therapist must be capable of envisaging possible complications, and eventually prevent them in time, or if they arise to know how to treat them.
Complications in dental implantology can be divided into surgical and prosthetic complications. Surgical complications can be intraoperative, early postoperative and late postoperative complications, of which the most frequent are periimplant changes/lesions. Prosthetic complications are usually connected with unsatisfactory direction and localisation of the implant, instability and fracture of elements of the reinforcement, fracture of bridge constructions, aesthetic and functional complications and loss of the implant.
In the broadest sense failure in dental implantology is clearly loss of the implant due to any reason, but also dissatisfaction of the patient with the functional or aesthetic effect also leads to failure.
The paper presents our experience to date with complications, and also failures, during the use of different types of implantological systems.
