Effect of a platform switch and a laser-microgrooved coronal design on short dental implants: A multicenter retrospective study
Puntos clave
To examine the impact of platform switching and laser-microgrooved coronal design on short dental implants.
Conducted a multicenter retrospective study
Evaluated short implants in atrophic posterior jaws
Assessed success rates and bone level stability over 3-5 years
Short implants showed high success rates
Stable crestal bone levels were maintained
Design positively influenced implant performance
Resumen
Platform-switched short implants with a laser-microgrooved coronal design demonstrated high success rates in atrophic posterior jaws after 3-5 years of function, with stable crestal bone levels.
