The pioneering work of Bra˚ nemark ushered in a new era in dentistryd the era of implant dentistry. Bra˚ nemark and his colleagues created a new field of study from a serendipitous research observation, thus exemplifying Pasteur’s dictum that ‘‘chance favors the prepared mind.’’ Through further research, these investigators transformed the field of implantology from an unpredictable art to a well-grounded clinical science. This research provided the scientific basis for a set of strict clinical protocols. Although some of the early protocols proved to be overly conservative, such as the requirement that all implant surgery be performed in an operating room environment, the growth of implantology was well served. | ELSEVIER SAUNDERS THE DENTAL CLINICS OF NORTH AMERICA Dent Clin N Am 50 2006 xi-xiii Preface Implantology Mark V. Thomas DMD Guest Editor The pioneering work of Branemark ushered in a new era in dentistry the era of implant dentistry. Branemark and his colleagues created a new field of study from a serendipitous research observation thus exemplifying Pasteur s dictum that chance favors the prepared mind. Through further research these investigators transformed the field of implantology from an unpredictable art to a well-grounded clinical science. This research provided the scientific basis for a set of strict clinical protocols. Although some of the early protocols proved to be overly conservative such as the requirement that all implant surgery be performed in an operating room environment the growth of implantology was well served by this emphasis on predictability and outcomes. From those early beginnings much has changed in implantology. As new knowledge has accumulated old paradigms have been revised or replaced with new ones. What began as a hyper-specialized treatment modality has now become a commonplace method of tooth replacement. Some of these new paradigms are summarized in this volume. Drs. Puleo and Thomas discuss the impact of implant surfaces and the role of surface enhancements in improving outcomes and shortening treatment time. Drs. Jones and Cochran revisit the literature regarding one- versus two-stage implants. Drs. Paquette Brodala and Williams review risk factors for implant failure a topic that is likely to be of increasing importance. Dr. Jay Beagle discusses immediate implant placement while Dr. Mohanad Al-Sabbagh examines the placement of implants in the esthetic zone another topic of increasing importance. Drs. Tiwana Kushner and Haug discuss sinus augmentation 0011-8532 06 - see front matter 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. doi xii PREFACE surgery and make suggestions for .
