Conditions

Partial-edentulism

Brief summary

The main aim of this prospective study is to analyze the survival rate of short-length implants (\<6.5 mm) in subjects with partial edentulism. Non-short length implant will be used as control arm. Additionally, others clinical parameters (marginal bone loss and prosthetic associated complications) will be measured.

Interventions

DEVICEBTI Implant

BTI Dental implants are non-active medical device, single use, non resterilizable, biocompatible and sterile devices made of alloplastic materials (Titanium) intended to be surgically implanted into alveolar and/or basal bone of the mandible or maxilla to provide support and a means of retention for a dental prosthesis (e.g. bridge, single-tooth, overdenture).
