The future has arrived, and we are art and part of it

Oral implantology, whether metallic or ceramic, has undoubtedly had a global impact on the profession and on the daily lives of our patients. In the early days, implants were only placed by a few dentists, trained in specific centres, and for a few patients, who had the means to access the treatment. In recent decades, most educational institutions specialised in oral health offer training, and this is increasing not only the number of dental professionals who are considering oral implantology as a specialisation but also the number of patients, who have more access than ever to information regarding dental implants and are therefore increasingly requesting metal-free solutions for their long-term well-being.
