A<unk> -analog<unk>  implant (RAI) – also known as a truly anatomic<unk>  implant, or an anatomical/custom implant – is a medical device to replace one or more<unk> s of a single tooth immediately after extraction. In contrast to common titanium screw type implants, these implants are custom-made to exactly match the extraction socket of the specific patient. Thus there is usually no need for surgery. As the<unk>  analog<unk>  implant matches the tooth socket<unk>  alveolus) it can only be placed in conjunction with the tooth extraction. If the tooth has been already lost and the soft and hard tissue is already healed a RAI can no longer be placed. The basic principle of endosseous implants is a biological process described as osseointegration, in which materials such as titanium or ceramic form an intimate bond to bone. There are no particular differences between the osseointegration of a<unk>  analog implant and a conventional screw type implant.
