Early-Loaded Laser-Sintered Versus Acid-Etched One-Piece Dental Implants for Mandibular Premolars Replacement

Abstract

These preliminary results suggest that these implants are associated with satisfactory clinical and radiographic outcomes. Laser versus acid-etched surface treatments did not show any significant difference among different clinical measures or radiographic evaluations at different follow-up times. However, wider application for longer follow-up periods is required for further conclusive recommendations.
