Comparison of survival rate and crestal bone loss of narrow diameter dental implants versus regular dental implants: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Abstract: The aim of the present study was to establish survival rates, as well as crestal bone loss (CBL) of narrow diameter implants (NDI), compared to regular diameter implants (RDI). The current review followed the Enhancing the QUAlity and Transparency Of health Research guidelines and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses statement. We searched main databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Cochrane Oral Health Group Trials Register) for articles … Show more

“…The promising results of narrow diameter implants (NDI) as implantretained mandibular overdenture (IMO) retainers led to a consensus in literature to indicate NDI for the treatment of edentulous patients with limited bone availability. [1][2][3][4] Although conventional loading (CL) has been adopted in most previous studies, the inconvenience of a long healing period led to the adoption of immediate loading (IML) in overdentures retained by two implants, as IML has been shown to be a clinically viable and successful treatment option. [5][6][7] However, the precise benefits associated with each type of loading are still unclear, especially for edentulous patients with advanced age.…”
