| Abstract: | Rehabilitation of patients through implants in areas with severe bone resorption in the posterior mandible is a challenge in implant dentistry. In this context, extra short implants configure a treatment option for this type of patient, as they can avoid increased financial cost, treatment time and patient morbidity. The present study evaluated the marginal bone stability in individualized extra-short implants for masticatory function in the posterior mandible. Using digitized periapical radiographs of 13 extra-short implants performed on 7 patients. The mesial and distal regions of each implant were selected, from the bone crest to the region parallel to the apex, and the bone stability of this crest was measured using the Image J software immediate T1 and 1 year after rehabilitation (T2). The height of the bone crest remained stable, showing no statistically significant difference between T1 and T2 (p> 0.005) for both the mesial bone crest and the distal bone crest in individual or united crowns rehabilitation. Marginal bone stability was observed in extra short implants, corroborating the biological and biomechanical stability of these implants presented in the literature. Despite the limited sample size and proservation time, extra-short implants are predictive treatment options for patients with severe bone atrophy in the posterior mandible. |
