Impact of Implant Mesiodistal Distance on Peri‐Implant Bone Loss: A Cross‐Sectional Retrospective Study
The mesiodistal algorithm of 4-4.6 mm (implant to adjacent canine tooth), 7-7.4 mm, 8-8.5 mm, and 9-9.5 mm was proved to be effective for maintaining peri-implant bone level. It was also observed in our study that the impact of inter-implant distance outweighed that of smoking. This study provided clinicians predictable prognostic outcomes for implants and reference for deciding treatment plans.
