Bone-Implant Contact Surface Influence on Dental Implant Stability

Bone-Implant Contact Surface Influence on Dental Implant Stability in Fresh Extraction and Healed Sites

This study aims to evaluate the changes in the stability and bone-implant contact surface of implants of the same macro-design placed with particle grafting in the fresh extraction socket, without grafting, and placed in healed implant sites.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Having a non-repairable premolar or molar tooth, or an edentulous area where the corresponding teeth have been extracted at least six months ago,
• At least 18 years old,
• Maintaining good dental hygiene,
• Having a favorable occlusion,
• Having intact socket walls after extraction.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Any local or systemic disorders that had contraindications for dental implant insertion,
• Pregnant and lactating women.
