Summary
Marginal bone preservation is an important determinant of long-term implant success. Conventional flap implant placement provides direct visualization of the surgical site but may disturb the periosteal blood supply and contribute to early crestal bone remodeling. Flapless guided implant placement is a minimally invasive approach that aims to preserve soft tissue architecture and vascular integrity. CBCT allows three-dimensional evaluation of peri implant bone levels, including mesial, distal, buccal, and lingual aspects. Aim: The aim of this study was to compare flapless guided implant placement with conventional flap implant placement in terms of marginal bone loss, implant stability, postoperative pain, and soft-tissue healing.
