Immediate Loading on Tapered Versus Straight Multiple Implants: A 3‐Year Follow‐Up of a Randomized Clinical Trial

Key Points

• To compare the outcomes of immediate loading on tapered versus straight multiple implants over a three-year period.
• Conducted a randomized clinical trial with assessment over three years.
• Participants received either tapered or straight implants for immediate loading.
• Follow-up evaluations assessed implant stability and clinical outcomes at defined intervals.
• Implants showed varying degrees of stability between tapered and straight designs at the three-year mark.
• Data indicated potentially improved outcomes for tapered implants over straight ones in certain conditions.
