Dental implants require good surgical and prosthetic skills with special training for successful treatment outcomes.
To assess the knowledge of the dental practitioners in Palestine about the therapeutic trends in implant dentistry.
The present study is a cross-sectional questionnaire study among dental practitioners registered in Palestinian dental association. All practitioners who consented and completely filled the questionnaire were included in the study. All participants were asked basic demographic questions, and their attitude towards basic and advanced dental implant trends was assessed. Chi-square test was used to associate a correlation between the area of location of the clinic and responses to the questionnaire (p<0.05).
Most of the dental practitioners were aware about the basic implant therapeutic trends. However, since most of the practitioners included in the present study had limited years of experience, they referred the advanced implant procedures to senior practitioners.
Dental practitioners in Palestine have good knowledge on the dental implant therapeutic trends. However, they do not carry out the advanced implant procedures and usually refer them to senior practitioners. There is no variation in the knowledge of the implant therapeutic trends based on varying locations of dental clinics.

大多数牙科从业者了解基本的种植治疗趋势。然而,由于本研究中纳入的大多数从业者经验年限有限,他们将先进的种植手术转诊给资深从业者。
巴勒斯坦的牙科从业者对牙种植治疗趋势有较好的了解。然而,他们不开展先进的种植手术,通常将其转诊给资深从业者。基于牙科诊所不同的位置,在种植治疗趋势的知识方面没有差异。
