Abstract
Objectives.The aim of the study was to evaluate and compare crestal bone loss of single-maxillary immediate postextractive implants
and immediate nonfunctional loading (INFL) during 72 months of follow-up. Material and Methods. Two single titanium implants
(Certain Prevail, Biomet 3I, USA) were placed in two patients using INFL technique. Implant stability and crestal bone level
were measured on periapical radiographs at 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery. Results. All osseointegrated implants were clinically
successful after 6 years of functional loading. Conclusion. Within the limit of the present case report, the paper supports the concept
that INFL of single dental implant can be a successful treatment procedure.
