Influence of Cone Beam Computed Tomography Settings on Implant Artifact Production: Zirconia and Titanium.

CONCLUSION: The zirconia implant generated more image artifacts than the titanium implant. Increasing kVp and the metal artifact reduction tool are efficient in decreasing the CBCT artifacts for both implants, whereas resolution does not affect their production.
