Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Postoperative Pain
Time Frame: up to 2 weeks
It was assessed through a 10-point Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The categories were as follows (0-1= None, 2-4= Mild, 5-7= Moderate, 8-10= Severe)
Implant stability
Time Frame: up to 3 months
Implant stability was measured using Osstell. Osstell measures the resonance frequency which indicated the implant stability. It has a scale from 1 to 100 where: * \<60 is considered low stability. * 60 \~ 69 is considered intermediate stability. * ≥ 70 is considered high stability
Amount of horizontal bone gain
Time Frame: up to 4 months
This was measured on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) by comparing pre- and post-operative bone width at specific levels around the implant.
