Zusammenfassung:Objective: The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the outcome of immediately provisionally restored implants in the posterior mandible after a minimum of 60 months in function. Material and methods: Twenty‐four patients were treated with 40 screw‐type implants replacing mandibular molars and premolars. Implants were provisionalized immediately after placement. Radiographic coronal bone levels, implant survival and success were evaluated 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60 months after the final restoration. Results: Measurements of the mean marginal bone levels around immediately loaded implants after 12 months showed a significant bone loss (P
