Abstract:

Implant dentistry is a merger of different disciplines of dentistry like oral surgery, prosthodontics, periodontics, radiology, orthodontics and endodontics. Surgery and prosthetic rehabilitation play the key part of treatment. There are situations where other disciplines play an important role. When remaining teeth is involved in rehabilitation along with implants or where aesthetic concern comes into play often procedures like crown lengthening, post core and even Lasers become applicable. Three case reports are discussed where an interdisciplinary involvement of dental treatments was deemed beneficial to the patients in achieving a successful outcome.
