Abstrakt: This article forms part of the themed issue on dental implants, with the general dentist being the main intended reader and with particular relevance to primary care dental professionals. It aims to describe the various characteristics of the implant in health, address contemporary developments in implant dentistry and offer some novel insights on the prevention of peri-implant diseases. A healthy implant exhibits specific histological, clinical and radiographic characteristics. Understanding such aspects leads to proper diagnosis and measures to maintain tissue integrity and prevent the development and progression of peri-implant diseases. Moreover, internationally and widely accepted definitions and recommendations based on expert consensus have been put forward to guide day-to-day clinical practice. This information should provide general practitioners with the means necessary to achieve the best possible outcome for their patients.
