Background: osseointegration of dental implants refers to direct structural and functional link between living bone and the surface of non-natural implants. It follows bonding up of an implant into jaw bone when bone cells fasten themselves directly onto the titanium surface.it is the most investigated area in implantology in recent times. Evidence based data revels that osseointegrated implants are predictable and highly successful. This process is relatively complex and is influenced by various factors in formation of bone neighbouring implant surface.
