Abstract
Aim: The aim of the present study was to compare and evaluate failures of implants, prosthetic complications, patients perception of pain and satisfaction levels along with radiologic changes in peri implant bone levels in implants placed with single stage and two stage technique followed by conventional loading of implants Methodology: A total of 20 implants (10 in each group) were placed in periodontally healthy partially edentulous patients, with one or more teeth missing in mandibular posterior region having adequate amount of bone and keratinized tissue and who were greater than or equal to 18 years of age. They were followed up for a period of 6 months. Results: The mean of the satisfaction levels was 7.40 in the single stage technique and 5.80 in the two stage technique. The p-value was 0.01. Crestal bone loss was lower in implants placed with the single stage technique as compared to the two stage technique. Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study it can be concluded that the single stage approach might be preferable over the two stage approach when placing and restoring dental implants.
