Abstract

Although chronic kidney disease (CKD)has been considered a global publichealth problem, itseffect on dental implanttreatmentis largely unknown. Atrophic or severely deficient edentulous single tooth dental implant sites require osseous augmentation before any dental implant placement.However, due to complications of CKD, bone grafting procedures, and dental implant treatment for renal failure patients and patients with nephrectomy is more challenging.
