Dental implants have become a common method to replace missing teeth. In case of limited amount of bone, an extended incision, large flap and bone graft or sinus augmentation are required prior to implant placement. The most common complications associated with the standard approach include swelling, pain, flap breakdown and bone loss. Limited data concerning minimally invasive techniques have been described in the literature. Generally, such techniques involve a less-extensive incision with reduced diameter implants, or short implants and more recently, the use of computed-aided guided surgery for implant placement. This presentation will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of these minimally invasive implant procedures. The techniques since tooth extraction, treatment planning, implant surgery, provisional restoration, and final prosthesis will be discussed in both partially edentulous and completely edentulous situations.
