Because of the proliferation of implant systems, a set of criteria for implant success based on scientific investigations is essential. A review of the literature and the analysis of the results indicate that six criteria are supported as valid for determining the clinical success of endosseous dental implants. These criteria are proposed for use in clinical investigation on implants.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010512	Periodontal Index	A numerical rating scale for classifying the periodontal status of a person or population with a single figure which takes into consideration prevalence as well as severity of the condition. It is based upon probe measurement of periodontal pockets and on gingival tissue status.
