Abstract

Proposing to place endosseous implants is an integral facet of dental treatment plans. Their insertion is usually associated with a low incidence of untoward events. However, despite careful planning, surgical complications can arise: infection, intraoral hemorrhage, wound dehiscence, postoperative pain, lack of primary implant stability, inadvertent penetration into the maxillary sinus or nasal fossa, sinus lift sequelae, neurosensory disturbances, injuries to adjacent teeth, tissue emphysema, and aspiration, or ingestion of surgical instruments. This article addresses some surgical complications associated with dental implant placement and discusses how to avoid and manage them when they occur.
