Fig. 3From: An experimental study on the effects of the cortical thickness and bone density on initial mechanical anchorage of different Straumann® implant designsThe comparative assessment of the ISQ values in type IV bone (SP [n 9], BLT [n 10], TE [n 7], and BLX [n 8]) in both groups (regardless of the presence of cortical bone) revealed that the BLX design had significantly higher mechanical anchorage compared to other implant systems (p 0.043)Back to article page
