Materials for the manufacture of dental implants (literature review)

   The purpose of this study was to analyze various literature sources, giving an exhaustive overview of the characteristics of all structural materials currently used in the manufacture of dental implants, which will also determine the trend of new developments in materials science in dental implantology.

   The research material included literary data presented in scientific publications indexed in the bibliographic databases PubMed, ScienceDirect and E-library, using the keywords isolated and their combinations in Russian and English « dental implants, titanium, zirconium, ceramics, tantalum, biocompatibility, osteointegration, graphene» as search terms. The results showed that the use of all existing materials and technological processes for the production of dental implants is justified. To date, the task of further scientific research in this field is to search for and/ or create a material that meets all the necessary operational requirements for a dental implant, has greater biocompatibility, less toxic effects on the body or its absence, providing optimal functional and aesthetic properties, at the lowest possible cost of manufacturing the product. Studies of ceramic-metal materials with the addition of graphene are promising, as currently studies show its high potential acceptability for integration in the development of new materials and technological processes for the production of dental implants.
