Abstract
Dental implants are an increasingly effective and aesthetic solution in cases of tooth loss. Once one of the major goals of current implantology is the optimal outcome in rehabilitation with dental implants, there's an attempt to understand how the use of genetic engineering can contribute to this effect. This article aims to evaluate the importance of the technical area of genetic engineering, specialy on the role of the receptor activator for nuclear factor kappa beta ligand in osteoimmunology. The present article is a literature review that was based on the results of research carried out on search engines for medical information and genetics, with particular relevance to information concerning the last ten years. It is believed that the levels of receptor activator for nuclear factor kappa beta ligand and osteoprotegerin may contribute to the optimization results in implant rehabilitation. Further clinical investigations are urged to be made in order to clarify some issues and to recoup the clinical applications of genetic engineering applied to oral implantology.
