These studies suggest that dental implants vary by surface preparation, shape, and material, with titanium, zirconia, and hydroxyapatite-coated implants showing different clinical performances and risks of peri-implantitis.
Dental implants are a widely used solution for replacing missing teeth. They come in various materials, shapes, and surface characteristics, each designed to improve clinical outcomes. This synthesis aims to present the key insights from multiple research papers on the different types of dental implants.

In summary, while titanium and its alloys remain the most commonly used materials for dental implants, alternative materials like PEEK and zirconia are being explored. Surface characteristics play a crucial role in the success of implants, with smoother surfaces being less prone to peri-implantitis. However, no single type of implant has been proven to be superior in terms of long-term success. Further research with longer follow-up periods and larger sample sizes is needed to draw more definitive conclusions.
