入选标准
- •Any edentulous patient (post-extractive sites must to be healed from at least 3 months), with sufficient bone height and width in the anterior mandible (between canines) to allow the placement of two implants of 3.5 mm diameter of at least 8.5 mm of length.
- •18 years or older, and able to sign an informed consent.
- •Smokers will be included and categorized into: 1) non smokers; 2) moderate smokers (smoking up to 10 cigarettes/day); 3) heavy smokers (smoking more than 11 cigarettes/day).
- •In case of post-extractive sites, they must have been healing for at least 3 months before being treated in the study.

结局指标
主要结局
Rate of implant stability
时间窗: Up to 5 years
The stability of each individual implant will be measured by the local blinded outcome assessors manually tightening the screws with a torque of 30 Ncm at abutment connection at initial loading. At 1,3 and 5 years after loading, individual implants will be manually tested for stability. Once the single crowns will be screwed, their stability will be assessed by rocking the crown with the handles of two dental instruments.
Number of implant failure
时间窗: Up to 5 years
Defined as implant mobility and/or any infection dictating implant removal, and/or implant fracture and/or any other mechanical complication rendering the implant unusable.
Number of prosthesis failure
时间窗: Up to 5 years
Whether it will not be possible to place the prosthesis because of implant failure or a prosthesis that has to be remade for any reaso
Number of complications
时间窗: Up to 5 years
echnical (fracture of the framework and/or the veneering material, screw loosening, etc.) and/or biologic (pain, swelling, suppuration, peri-implantitis, etc.) complications will be considered.
次要结局
- Peri-implant marginal bone level changes(At 1,3 and 5 years)
- Patient satisfaction(At 1,3 and 5 years)
