Tissue integration of a new titanium-zirconium dental implant: a comparative histologic and radiographic study in the canine (Publications)
fBIC values for Ti and TiZr were 0.29 +/- 0.42 mm and 0.26 +/- 0.32 mm (2 weeks), -0.01 +/- 0.20 mm and 0.10 +/- 0.28 mm (4 weeks), and -0.06 +/- 0.22 mm and 0.08 +/- 0.30 mm (8 weeks), respectively. The [...] regressions were applied. RESULTS: From baseline to 8 weeks, a mean bone loss of 0.09 +/- 0.33 mm for TiZr and a gain of 0.02 +/- 0.33 mm for Ti were calculated radiographically.
