Overview of implant treatment protocols categorised by timing of implant placement (immediate, early with soft tissue healing, early with hard tissue healing, late after complete bone healing), implant loading (immediate, early, delayed/conventional) and occlusal modalities (non-occlusal, progressive, non-occlusal). The framework highlights the integration of prosthetic phases and occlusal considerations in treatment planning.
