[Complications related to axial orientation of implants and their research progress].

The ideal axial orientation of implant is the key to the success of implant denture restoration. According to the restoration-oriented concept of implant, the implant axis direction should be consistent with the long axis direction of the suprastructure. In clinical practice, implant axial deviation leads to related complications, such as implant fracture, periimplant inflammation, and poor esthetic outcome of implant restoration, resulting in implant treatment failure. In this paper, complications related to improper implant axial orientation, their causes and treatment strategies are reviewed.
