Comparative Evaluation of Marginal Bone Loss and Soft Tissue Thickness in Posterior Implants Placed using Single Stage and Two Stage Protocols: A Clinical Study
Background: Dental implants are a predictable treatment modality for the rehabilitation of partially edentulous patients. Long-term success is influenced by peri-implant hard and soft tissue stability, particularly marginal bone levels and soft tissue thickness. The choice of surgical protocol—single-stage (non-submerg...
