Long-term Study in Early Loaded Hydrophilic Surface Implants

Objective: To assess the clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction of early loaded implants with a hydrophilic, moderately rough surface for partially edentulous patients after a follow-up of 8.5 to 9.5 years. Materials and methods: A prospective observational single-centre study involving 15 patients with single, delayed placement and early loaded implants in the posterior area was performed. Clinical and radiographical parameters, including biological and technical complications and patient satisfaction, were assessed.
