Abstract

The state of peri-implantation tissues was analyzed according to cone-beam computed tomography. A modified version of the alveolar index (AIm) is proposed to assess changes in the height of the alveolar ridge in the absence of a tooth and the presence of an implant. It was found that delayed implantation is characterized by more favorable long-term results in comparison with direct implantation.
