- Abstract
- As the accessibility of dental treatment for the disabled has improved and the need for oral care has emerged, implant restoration has been adopted as one of the treatment methods for restoring the missing teeth in these patients. However, considering the characteristics of disabled patients and the level of cooperation should be
considered. It is necessary to check for medication and consider any systemic diseases that may be affected by
invasive surgery. In particular, patients taking antiplatelet, anticoagulant, or osteoporosis drugs, or in a state of organ transplantation, invasive implant surgery should be more cautious. In this article, the considerations for various medical history and characteristics of several types of disability would be discussed.
