Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Implant stability	up to 12 months	Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) values were measured using Osstell. To ensure accuracy, the probe was positioned at a 90° angle and 3 mm above soft tissue level, as recommended in previous protocols. Osstell's patented technology uses the ISQ scale, with values ranging from 1 to 100, where higher values indicate greater stability
Marginal Bone Loss	up to 12 months	Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans were obtained at the time of final restoration and post-placement. Measurements were made (in mm) from the implant platform to the most coronal bone level using OnDemand3D software. Each scan was oriented to align the implant with the axial plane. Measurements were performed by a single calibrated examiner to a precision of 0.01 mm.
