Edentulous Alveolar Ridge

Keywords

edentulous, narrow alveolar ridges

Brief summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the survival of narrow dental implants (≤ 3,5 mm) in multiple fixed prostheses in comparison with standard diameter dental implants (≥ 3,75 mm) after 5 years of follow-up. The hypothesis of the study is that narrow dental implants under the evaluated conditions, have the same survival rate and clinical performance than the standard diameter implants.
