Osseointegration is the direct structural and functional connection between living bone and the surface of a load-bearing artificial implant. The function of an implant supported restoration is to restore missing teeth, its form, function, aesthetics and to optimize the longevity of the restored or remaining dentition. Dental implants have different biological and mechanical characteristics as compared to natural teeth. Since they are more susceptible to occlusal overloading, one of the most important criteria for implant success is implant occlusion. An implant protected occlusion is very essential as it provides the maximum intercuspation and also reduces occlusal load on implants. The ideal occlusal scheme for an implant prosthesis is designed to control the stress, provide a prosthetic and biologically acceptable implant interface and maintain long term stability of the marginal bone, soft tissue and prosthesis.
