Interventions

Implants and Operating Setup Conical osseointegrable implants from the Alpha-Bio NeO system (Alpha-Bio Tec, Petach Tikva, Israel) and the BTK BT Konic system (Biotec Implants, Vicenza, Italy) were use
? = 2940 nm). For the bone biomodification step, the program Granulation Tissue Ablation Non-contact was used. The tip emits energy at 90° to its longitudinal axis over a 180° sector
