“…By using implants with a reduced diameter, the risk of bone dehiscence and fenestration can be reduced and bone augmentation might be avoided. Therefore, narrow diameter implants present an alternative in the anterior region as they showed comparable results in terms of survival and complication rates, as well as marginal bone loss compared to regular diameter implants [ 26 , 27 ]. However, data on the mechanical reliability of narrow diameter implants made of zirconia are sparse [ 28 , 29 , 30 ].…”

“…Narrow implants are an excellent alternative for fixed rehabilitation of areas with reduced bone volume, without grafting procedures. Although the literature is not clear about the definition of narrow implants, a systematic review that included implants with diameters smaller than 3.75 mm showed that their survival rates, complications, and bone loss seemed to be no different from those reported for regular diameter implants 15 …”

“…Although the literature is not clear about the definition of narrow implants, a systematic review that included implants with diameters smaller than 3.75 mm showed that their survival rates, complications, and bone loss seemed to be no different from those reported for regular diameter implants. 15 In this present case, the patient needed to rehabilitate two agenesic maxillary lateral incisors, and since there was reduced buccolingual bone volume as well as mesiodistal space, hybrid morse tapper connection extra-narrow implants (Helix Narrow GM, Neodent,) were chosen to avoid peri-implant fenestration and the need to perform guided bone regeneration procedures. 8 Although maxillary bone quality has been reported to be inferior compared to mandibular bone, good primary stability was achieved and immediate loading could be applied, which is an important factor for patients in need of rehabilitation in the esthetic zone.…”

“…12B). 232 Biological complications are divided into peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis, the equivalent of gingivitis and periodontitis, respectively, in natural teeth. 168 The onset and progression of peri-implant disease and periodontal disease are similar, indicating comparable bacterial composition.…”
