[Biological success in osseointegrated implants].

Abstract

Long term research results initiated by Dr. P. I. Branemark in 1965 and before, had widely demonstrated that with an adequate biomaterial, a phenomenon of biological acceptance from maxillary bone occurs, configurating a real bone healing, obtaining an intimate bonding between this alive tissue and the implant, which will last under function. Nevertheless, for this bio-physiological step happens and remain, there are many necessary factors named biological and biomechanical principles, and they command and are the responsibles of the osseointegration success.
