Current treatment protocols for the rehabilitation of partially and fully edentulous patients by means of implant-supported restorations are associated with high survival rates, thus representing a predictable alternative to conventional concepts. 1,2 Though survival is a robust outcome to assess the fundamental basis for implant function, it clearly ignores the biological and esthetic status of the surrounding tissues. Similar limitations are also related to the survival assessment of implant-supported prostheses, which in turn do not account for prosthetic complications.Consequently, the term "survival" has been supplemented with "success" to allow for a more holistic definition of outcomes in implant dentistry and a more objective assessment on whether implant-supported restorations are within a predefined range of relevant clinical and radiographic outcome measures. The definition of "implant success" has evolved over the years and was ultimately refined during the 2017 World Workshop on the Classification of Periodontal and Peri-Implant Diseases and Conditions by the characterization of peri-implant health. 3,4 Healthy peri-implant tissues have become synonymous with implant success. This is clinically determined by the "absence of erythema, bleeding on probing, swelling and suppuration," without considering a specific range of probing depths.
