Dental implantology has evolved tremendously over the past few decades. Conventional dental implants have long been considered the gold standard for fixed teeth replacement. They provide excellent long-term success through Osseo Integration, ensuring a stable and natural foundation for crowns or bridges. However, conventional implants often require additional surgical procedures such as sinus lifts before dental implants, dental bone grafts, or ridge augmentations, especially in patients with poor bone volume. These steps not only increase the treatment time and cost but also subject the patient to invasive and time-consuming surgeries, delaying the final prosthetic loading by several months.

To overcome these drawbacks, basal implants were introduced as an alternative. The main advantage of basal implant systems was their ability to provide immediate loading dental implants without bone grafting. They utilize the basal cortical bone, which is denser and more stable, allowing the placement of implants even in cases of severe bone loss. This approach aimed to reduce treatment duration and avoid complex grafting procedures, making it a seemingly faster and less invasive option.

However, despite addressing the limitations of conventional implants, basal implants introduced a new set of challenges. Unlike conventional implants that
Osseo Integrate with bone, basal implants rely on Osseo fixation, meaning they are mechanically anchored in cortical bone without forming a true biological bond. This can lead to long-term stability issues and potential implant failure over time. Moreover, basal implants are single-piece implants, which limit prosthetic flexibility. During placement, these implants are often positioned at an angulation to engage available cortical bone and avoid critical anatomical structures like the maxillary sinus or inferior alveolar nerve.
