Extra-short vs. Non-extra-short Dental Implants Splinted on the Same Prosthesis

Prospective Observational Study on Evolution of Extra-short Implants (<6.5 mm) Compared to Non-extra-short Implants (≥ 6.5 mm) Splinted on the Same Prosthesis

The main aim of this prospective study is to analyze the survival rate of short-length implants (<6.5 mm) in subjects with partial edentulism. Non-short length implant will be used as control arm. Additionally, others clinical parameters (marginal bone loss and prosthetic associated complications) will be measured.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Age ≥ 18 years
• Have planned a fixed multiple prosthesis supported by implants <6.5 mm in length and implants ≥ 6.5 mm in length within 15 days before the inclusion of the patient in the study.
• Planning of supported prostheses from 2 to 4 implants dental
• Have a previously performed CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography)
• Availability to be observed during the period of tracing
• Signature of the informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

• Smokers> 10 cigarettes / day
• Complete prostheses
• Unitary prostheses
