A retrospective controlled cohort study was performed. The 4.5-mm extra-short group (study group; SG) included 48 consecutively placed implants. The control group (CG) included 48 implants splinted to the extra-short implants. The same surgical team treated the 39 included patients, and all implants were restored with a screw-retained fixed restoration and intermediate abutments. Im- mediate and conventionally loaded implants were included. All implants were in function during the follow-up period (14 \u00b1 3.4 and 17 \u00b1 13 months for SG and CG, respectively). No differences in techni- cal complications were observed between the groups (one and two cases of screw loosening for SG and CG, respectively; two provisional prosthesis fractures for SG; P &amp;#61; .310). Marginal bone stability was similar for SG and CG at the mesial level (-0.01 \u00b1 0.28 mm for SG vs -0.18 \u00b1 0.72 mm for CG; P &amp;#61; .270) and at the distal level (0.02 \u00b1 0.39 mm for SG vs -0.18 \u00b1 0.68 mm for CG; P &amp;#61; .076). The same good clinical performance could be observed for 4.5-mm implants and longer implants under the same prosthesis.<\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"sub-title\">Keywords: <\/strong>extra-short implants; marginal bone stability; short dental implants.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<a itemprop=\"url\" href=\"https:\/\/www.quintessence-publishing.com\/usa\/en\/article\/4497103\/international-journal-of-periodontics-restorative-dentistry\/2024\/05\/clinical-performance-of-splinted-4.5-mm-extra-short-implants-a-controlled-retrospective-cohort-study\" target=\"_blank\"  class=\"qodef-btn qodef-btn-medium qodef-btn-solid btnWebRosa2\"  >\n    <span class=\"qodef-btn-text\">Accedi all&#039;articolo completo<\/span>\n    <\/a>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>Int J Periodontics Restorative Dent. 2024;44(5):544-555.<\/strong><br \/>\nThis study compared the survival, marginal bone loss (MBL), and prosthetic complications of 4.5-mm extra-short implants and longer implants splinted to the short implants via the restoration.
