Sumario:<p id="p1">Dental implants are now a standard oral surgery procedure for humans; in veterinary dentistry, there is still a need for more information about these medical devices used to replace missing teeth. Advances in human implantology have informed studies on the insertion and osseointegration of dental implants in dogs, but it is needed to study more the prosthodontic stage. Additionally, few studies have been published regarding dental implants in cats, often lacking long-term results. Case reports that support the use of dental implants in veterinary dentistry are already published, covering short-, medium-, and long-term outcomes. Therefore, veterinary specialists must collaborate to establish protocols that ensure long-term and predictable success in this field. This chapter discusses case selection, methods, complications, and outcomes related to dental implants in small animals.</p>
