COMPARISON OF SOFT TISSUE HEALING AND OSSEOINTEGRATION OF IMZ IMPLANTS PLACED IN ONE-STAGE AND TWO-STAGE TECHNIQUES

Abstract

The osseointegration of endosseous dental implants is well documented. Implants have proven to be a viable treatment option for the replacement of missing teeth. The surgical phase of implant dentistry for most implant systems involves two stages--the placement of the implant and its subsequent uncovering. The IMZ (Interpore International) implant system is classically a two-stage system. No significant differences were demonstrated in osseointegration and soft tissue healing for IMZ implants placed in one-stage and two-stage procedures in this pilot study.
