Inter-implant distance correlated to different preparation protocol on cortical bone: an animal study
No significant differences in osseointegration were observed between surgical protocols or IIDs. However, the trend of increased remodelling and higher BIC at 2 mm IID highlights the mechanical impact of undersized preparation in close implant spacing. These findings emphasize the complexity of peri-implant bone response to mechanical forces, necessitating further clinical studies to validate these results in human models.
