Published in: International journal of implant dentistry (2021)

Bone gain and implant survival were significantly lower in the non-grafted side versus the grafted side. Prosthetic rehabilitation was possible in all ten patients. The non-grafted technique may have some potential for clinical use, although it showed poorer results. Trial registration The Netherlands Trialregister. NTR NL3541 (NTR3696).
