Tissue integration of a new titanium-zirconium dental implant: a comparative histologic and radiographic study in the canine (Publications)
+/- 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 mean BIC values peaked at 86.9% +/- 6.8% (8 weeks) for TiZr and at 83.4% +/- 5.9% (4 weeks) [...] Standardized radiographs were taken after implantation, and at the sacrifice of 2 weeks (three dogs), 4 weeks (three dogs), and 8 weeks (three dogs). Histologic and histomorphometric measurements were performed
