- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Insertion torque was measured at T1 using a manual torque wrench (Straumann®) and the implant stability quotient (ISQ) was registered as the average of the buccal, lingual, mesial and distal readings using the Osstell® ISQ device (Osstell, W&H, Gothenburg, Sweden)
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method ISQ measured using the Osstell® ISQ device at 6 months and 1 year after surgery
