TY - JOUR T1 - Short Implant: A New Normal in Implant Dentistry-Review Article A1 - Jokkin Jesima A1 - Raja Kamala Kannan A1 - Karthikeyan Indrapriyadharshini JF - Annals of Dental Specialty JO - Ann Dent Spec SN - 2347-2022 Y1 - 2024 VL - 12 IS - 3 DO - 10.51847/36HxytCIuB SP - 34 EP - 41 N2 - The dental implants have been successful, which has prompted study into methods to reduce surgical complexity and improve survival. Even in the most critical case, the use of implants has expanded as a result of advanced technology. Reduced bone height and volume as a result of bone resorption after tooth extraction renders implant placement difficult. In situations when the standard implants are not feasible, shorter implants have been proposed as an alternative. It's uncertain if they offer an effective course of treatment. Short implants shorten the duration of treatment, simplify the implant procedure, reduce patient morbidity, and reduce treatment costs. Despite the advantages they provide, a range of biological consequences that may even result in their elimination have been documented in the literature. This review focuses on the biomechanical considerations, the factors that affects the success of the short implants and their feasibility to be used as a viable therapeutic option for the rehabilitation of atrophic maxillary and mandibular alveolar ridges.
