Comparative Assessment of Crestal Bone Loss by Flapless and Flap Technique for Implant Placement: A Prospective Study

Background: The use of flapless surgery for placing dental implants is extremely popular due to better radiological tools and the availability of software that help in the planning of dental implants. Objective: The present study was done to assess crestal bone loss by using flapless and flap techni...

description Background: The use of flapless surgery for placing dental implants is extremely popular due to better radiological tools and the availability of software that help in the planning of dental implants. Objective: The present study was done to assess crestal bone loss by using flapless and flap techniques for placing implants. Methods: A total of 50 subjects who satisfied the inclusion criteria were selected for this study. Selected patients were then divided equally into two study groups i.e., those who are and those who are not undergoing flap surgery. Statistical analysis was done using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results: Statistically considerable P values were obtained. Bone loss was lesser with the flapless technique. Conclusion: Flapless implant placement demonstrated less crestal bone loss compared to flap surgery.
