The ITI Mission is

to promote and disseminate knowledge on all aspects of implant dentistry and related tissue regeneration through education and research to the benefit of the patient.

Preface

While implant dentistry today is well documented and demonstrates predictable outcomes, a significant proportion of patients still experience complications. It is therefore a must for all practitioners to know the causes of implant-related complications and how to avoid and manage them.

Volume 8 of the ITI Treatment Guide series provides clinicians with the latest evidence-based information on the origins and treatment of biological as well as technical and mechanical complications. An up-to-date analysis of the current evidence is based in part on the proceedings of the 4th ITI Consensus Conference held in Stuttgart in 2008 and the 5th ITI Consensus Conference held in Bern in 2013, as well as on a review of the current literature. The diagnosis and treatment of biological and technical complications are examined closely in 16 clinical cases presented by clinicians from all over the world.

The mission of the ITI to promote and disseminate knowledge on all aspects of implant dentistry to the benefit of the patient as always provides the background against which this volume of the ITI Treatment Guide series has been written.
