Abstract
Thanks to the technique of basal osseointegration, we are today in a position to treat 95% of completely or partially edentulous patients with fixed restorations. This goal can only be achieved if a number of rules are observed with regard to where the implants should be placed and when and how they should be combined with residual teeth. Most importantly, the implantologist must understand the functional requirements of the treatment and perform occlusal adjustments in a timely manner.
