Effect of 3- and 4-mm Interimplant Distances on the Height of Interimplant Bone Crest: A Histomorphometric Evaluation Measured on Bone Level Dental Implants in Minipig

摘要

Purpose: To analyze crestal bone loss changes that may affect the gingival height around an implant and bone loss in interproximal areas. When implants are placed adjacent to one another, interimplant bone loss around 1 implant may combine with the implant bone loss around the adjacent implant to affect the crestal bone loss interproximally.
