Purpose Dental implant is an effective and standardized treatment procedure in the healthcare setting. This study presents a comparison of dental implant reconstruction using screw and cement. It explicitly reviews the studies concerning cement and screws dental implants to determine the efficiency of the two. Patients and methods A systematic review was conducted by comprehensively searching electronic literature. The keywords, such as "Screw versus Cement Retained Fixed Implant Supported Reconstructions," "Screw Retained Fixed Implant." "Cement Implant" and "Dental Implant" were used for article searching. Twelve studies were included based on the determined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results No significant difference was found between the screw-retained and cemented retained implant supported reconstructions. Dental implants are associated with complications leading to implant failure based on the type of restoration that is being used; cement-retained restoration and screw-retained restoration. The treatment selection must be based on the significance criteria and the tooth condition. Conclusion Screw-retained implant-supported reconstructions were found to pose less biological and technological complications. Retention of the tooth is more stable and functional when implantation is selected based on the efficiency of a treatment procedure.

Issues associated with missing teeth can be found in almost all age groups. For edentulous patients, osseointegration is a highly efficient treatment. However, certain biochemical challenges are presented when osseointegrated implants are taken into consideration due to the periodontal ligament. Therefore, the current study focuses on clinical concerns that can occur with the use of dental implants and examines different trends of implant restoration and treatment of partial edentulous patients. Data were collected from ten research articles and analyzed by means of a qualitative secondary approach. The findings of the current study indicate that restoration and preservation of natural teeth are significant in the development of dental practices. Moreover, the determinant of endodontic treatment is considered to be a key factor in the retention and reconstruction of tooth functioning that is influenced by necrosis of dental pulp. We conclude that the osseointegration method is significant and highly effective for treating edentulous patients.
