- Fig. 1. a Closed short expandable dental implant (4.1 × 7 mm). The implant-abutment connection is characterised by an internal hexagon for rotation stability, combining the advantages of conical and parallel surfaces to reduce microgaps and micromovement [68]. The microthread concept and platform switching concept are implemented in the implant shoulder to reduce periimplant bone strain [53]. b Manual fixation of the expansion tool. Take note of the distance between both yellow rings. c Completion of the expansion process using the ratchet. Take note of the contact between both yellow rings. d Opened short expandable dental implant (4.1 × 7 mm). The expanded implant provides an increased bone-to-implant interface (pyramid shape) in the apical portion [54]. e Cross-section view of the implant apex. The apical expansion process is characterised by the unfolding of four wings, which are connected by four foils. D1: diameter of the closed implant. D2: diameter of the opened implant. fTop v
- Fig. 2. Cumulative implant survival over the follow-up period. The Kaplan-Meyer diagram visualises the analysis of implant survival in the maxilla and in the mandible (log rank test, p = 0.173) over the follow-up period up to 37 months (Table 4) : Novel expandable short dental implant
- Fig. 3. a Primary implant stability. The histogram visualises the distribution of the implant stability quotients (ISQ) for both jaws measured by resonance frequency analysis (Osstell AB, Göteborg, Sweden). b Secondary implant stability. The histogram shows the distribution of the implant stability quotients (ISQ) of osseointegrated implants. According to the measurement implant stability was classified as low with ISQ values < 60, medium with ISQ values 60–70, and high with values ISQ > 70 [34] : Novel expandable short dental implant
