Primary outcomePrimary: Change in Millimeters of Bone Loss Surrounding the Implant Device — -0.35; -0.82 millimeters
Summary
The study will compare initial peri-implant bone healing and longitudinal osseointegration between a fully microtextured dental implant and an analogous implant with a smooth machined collar.
The investigators hypothesize the fully textured implant will result in less peri-implant crestal bone resorption than the implant with a machined collar.
