Abstrakt: Aims and Objectives: The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of tapered implants with cylindrical implants by evaluating the implant stability using the Osstell implant stability quotient (ISQ) instrument (W&H Dental India PVT Ltd., Bangalore, India) postoperative pain using the visual analog scale (VAS) score, and the peri-implant health using implant mobility scale.
Materials and Methods: This study included 30 patients who were partially edentulous with single or bilateral missing teeth and received 30 tapered implants on the one side and 30 cylindrical implants on the other side. Implant stability, postoperative pain, and peri-implant health were evaluated.
Results: In the evaluation of 30 tapered implants and 30 cylindrical implants, the implant stability quotient (ISQ) value for the tapered implants was higher when compared to that of cylindrical implants, and the group that received tapered implants had the least pain and good peri-implant health than the group that received cylindrical implants.
Conclusion: On the basis of our clinical findings, it can be concluded that tapered implants provide greater primary stability than cylindrical implants. With the popularity of loading protocols in implant dentistry, the implant surgeon can increase predictability and success by selecting a tapered implant.
Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist.
