Ten-Year Follow-Up of Oral Implants in Bone With Limited Bucco-Oral Dimensions: A Prospective Case Series

Ten-Year Follow-Up of Oral Implants in Bone With Limited Bucco-Oral Dimensions: A Prospective Case Series

BACKGROUND: It has been suggested that 1-2 mm of bone width at the buccal and lingual aspect is required for a successful long-term implant outcome. Low levels of evidence support this minimum threshold of bone width. This prospective study aimed at evaluating the outcome of implants placed in alveo...

Zusammenfassung:BACKGROUND: It has been suggested that 1-2 mm of bone width at the buccal and lingual aspect is required for a successful long-term implant outcome. Low levels of evidence support this minimum threshold of bone width. This prospective study aimed at evaluating the outcome of implants placed in alveolar ridges with limited bucco-oral dimensions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One-hundred implants (dia. 3.5 mm) were placed in 28 patients with narrow alveolar ridge dimensions (
