Abstract
Literature states that different loading systems have been explored; and are
used depending on the clinical situation. The success with each of these systems also differs
with regards to quality of bone, the length and diameter of an implant, whether the implant
is placed anteriorly or posteriorly, as well as number of implants inserted. This thesis will
focus on these aspects to better guide clinical decision makers and practitioners on deciding
which loading system can be best suited for the patient.
Different types of loading systems include immediate, early, and conventional dental
loading. Immediate loading refers to a prosthesis being attached to an implant within 24
hours.
