Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Age 18 years or older Indication for placement of two implants in the premolar regions on both sides of the jaw, in edentulous areas at least 6 months after tooth extraction Bone density: D3–D4
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Presence of acute or chronic infection or local pathology at the intended implant placement site Patients with parafunctional habits Limitations to implant placement, such as insufficient vertical bone height Use of medications that interfere with bone healing, such as corticosteroids, hormone therapy, or bisphosphonates History of uncontrolled systemic diseases or conditions that interfere with bone healing, including smoking, diabetes, immunosuppression, fibrous dysplasia, bleeding disorders, hyperparathyroidism, pregnancy, and a history of head and neck radiotherapy or chemotherapy within the past 5 years
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Implant Stability. Timepoint: Immediately, 2, 8, and 12 weeks after implant placement. Method of measurement: Implant stability will be measured using the AnyCheck device (Neo Biotech, South Korea) in direct contact with the healing abutment. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Marginal Bone Loss. Timepoint: Three months after implant placement. Method of measurement: Measurement of the distance between the first thread of the implant and the crestal bone on parallel periapical radiographs, recorded in tenths of a millimeter.;Patient-reported Pain & Discomfort. Timepoint: Immediately after the surgery and one week after implant placement. Method of measurement: The level of pain and discomfort experienced by patients will be measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS).;Initial survival rate. Timepoint: Three months after implant placement. Method of measurement: Evaluating the survival rate of the implants in the follow-up session.;Bone density. Timepoint: 12 weeks after implant placement. Method of measurement: The bone density of the area around the implant will be classified using CBCT and the Lekholm & Zarb classification into five categories: D1, D2, D3, D4, and D5. | — |
