Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Marginal Bone Changes Marginal bone height changes around the two implants were evaluated through the software by measuring the distance from the alveolar crest to the implant apex in both coronal and sagittal views. The amount of bone loss was calculated by subtracting the measured distance between each radiographic evaluation made at the time of denture insertion and the recall appointments by superimposition of images and average was taken | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Occlusal force distribution measurement Occlusal force distribution was done using the T-Scan™ Novus™, which consists of a sensor registering occlusal contacts, a data transferring module linked to a computer, and a software program to send data to the computer and visualize them on the monitor | — |
