The parafunctional forces exerted on teeth or any prosthesis like dental implants have long been implicated to cause trauma to the stomatognathic system and are categorised by persistent or prolonged occlusion. The most standard cause of early and late implant failure after successful placement of dental implant has been ascribed to parafunction. The treatment planning for parafunctional cases involves careful evaluation of various factors. These factors comprise mainly of progressive bone loading, greater surface area occlusion, prosthesis design etc. This review concentrates on the parafunctional forces and their impact on dental implants. It also
briefly describes the possible preventive measure and modifications in treatment planning required for the addressed issue
