Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br> 1. Implantation survival rate (ISR) measured during a control visit every 4 months. A surviving implant is an implant that maintains its function in the mouth.<br> 2. Marginal bone loss (MBL) measured using annual periapical X-rays<br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br> 1. Initial implant stability quotient values (ISQ-0) and insertion torque at implant placement recorded at each scheduled visit every 4 months from implant placement<br> 2. Peri-implant soft tissue parameters recorded at each scheduled visit every 4 months from implant placement:<br> 2.1. Bleeding on probing (BoP) measured using a periodontal probe<br> 2.2. Probing depth (PD) measured using a periodontal probe<br> 2.3. Implant stability measured using ISQ values from a resonance frequencies analysis using the Osstel device<br>
