Abstract

As a discipline of dentistry, oral implantology deals with the diagnosis, design, insertion, restoration, and/or management of alloplastic or autogenous oral structures for the purpose of regaining contour, function, aesthetics, and speech in a partially or completely edentulous patient. The present review aims to provide the currently available knowledge about the impact of certain systemic disorders and the usage of some medications on the survival rate of dental implant therapy and to highlight the importance of patient management under these conditions. Diabetes, osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases, and the intake of some medications can increase the risk of the failure of a dental implant. Even though there are relatively few medical contraindications to dental implant treatment, certain conditions may increase the risk of failure or complications.
