1-year results from a split-mouth randomised controlled pilot trial comparing implants with 0.75 mm of machined collar placed at bone level or supracrestally.

CONCLUSIONS: The smooth-collar implants inserted supracrestally showed 0.7 mm less radiographic marginal bone loss compared with implants inserted at the bone level 9 months after loading. PMID: 30246187 [PubMed - in process]
