Abstract
In order to obtain a good performance from prosthetic substitutes there is need for some preconditions in relation not so much to the single implants per se — that is, to the success of the surgical intervention — as to other, more general reasons which lie behind the choice of a specified prosthesis. The failure of an implant operation is the consequence of a variety of concomitant factors which in the majority of cases are difficult to distinguish from each other. Decisive factors in a failure may be: a serious pathological state of the body part to be submitted to surgery, the use of incorrect techniques of implantation, improper prosthesis sterilization, inadequate implant design, or the choice of an unsuitable material as prosthetic constituent.
