Now a days implants being the first choice of treatment option in replacing the missing teeth. implants can be used in replacement of single missing tooth to replacement of multiple missing teeth in the oral cavity. There are different studies which stated that, there can be regain of sensation in the early missing tooth space area, when it is restored with dental implant, which is properly osseointegrated in the alveolar bone. Implants are available in market with different designs, some implants are surface treated which shows better or fast process of osseointegration to the alveolar bone. The process of motor sensation is totally dependent on the survival of the implant, and the survival of the implant depends upon different conditions like, whether the protocol of sterilization is maintained or not properly, helps in survival of the implant, systemic condition of the individual, bone type of the individual, presence of any hard or soft tissue defect near the implant site, presence of any infection near the implant site, all these factors determine the survival of the implant and ultimately determines the sensory motor control which is mediated through the implant.
