Abstract
The successful implants treatment is determided by several factors (bone quantity, prosthesis-implant relationship, biomechanical loads, surgical technique, etc.). Bone density is one of them and its influence in osseointegration is maximum. The aim of this article has been to make a narrative bibliographic review about the influence of bone density in osseointegration and implants success, as well as the possible effects of its diseases (osteoporosis, periodontal disease, etc.). Knowledge of the bone density of implant sites is very important to the dentist and oral surgeon, who must consider this parameter and its possible pathology to achieve a satisfactory result.
