What is Marginal Bone Loss Criteria for Implants about?
This retrospective study aimed to establish a criterion for marginal bone loss (MBL) to predict the success of dental implants, analyzing data from 176 patients with 590 implants. It found that implants losing more than 0.5 mm of MBL within 6 months post-loading are at significant risk of failure, proposing this threshold as a key indicator of success. Additionally, a prosthetic abutment height of 2 mm or more was identified as a protective factor for maintaining peri-implant bone levels.
