 Recently, dental implants are gaining increasing acceptance from patients as a solution for tooth loss. Early implant surgeries were performed with petite prosthetic considerations and implants were positioned where bone was available. Due to developments and advances in dental implants with regard to design and surface coatings, the success rate has increased to up to 95%. Computed tomography (CT) assisted implant placement augments the accuracy and quality of implant placement. Prosthetically driven implantology is followed currently to achieve an ideal crown position and CT helps to achieve this goal.
