Abstract:
Implant fracture is rare, but one of the most serious problem in implantation. Treatment of implant fracture can be different according to the extent of the fracture and on the state of the surrounding prosthetic restoration. Maintaining or submerging implant after treatment of peri-implantitis can be useful options for cases of tear-like fracture on the coronal area of an implant.
