Highly successful,: The integration of dental implants with the human body is one of if not the most successfu, longest lasting l and surprisingly the most comfortable dental procedures performed today! implants rarely fail. However, their crown retaining screws, their porcelain covering crown, and inflamed gums due to excess cement can lead to a premature restorative failure.

Dental Implants Yes: Dr. Misch an implant dental surgeon with over 40years of experience has documented the success rate compared to a three unit bridge. He surveyed 10k cases. Found that the bridges had a 34% failure rate at 16+ years. Dental implants had only a 3%over all failure rate at 20years. Most of these failures occurred during the 1st year. When done correctly they are the best treatment. Google Dr.Misch.

Over 90%: Dental implants have a very high rate of success, well over 90 percent. Many analysts have studied large numbers of implant cases, and often quote statistics from about 92 to 98 percent success, sometimes higher. There is little agreement on a precise number, because the risk of failure depends on many factors, most importantly the skill of the dentist.

1/20: Approximately 95% successful. Meaning about 1 implant in every 20 that are placed may fail. This is not including medically-related contraindications such as: uncontrolled diabetes, severe bone degenerative disorders, previous history of advanced periodontal disease.
