Commercially available high abutments placement
Patients will be randomly selected for the commercially available high abutments option. Two or three implants will be placed following the drilling protocol suggested by the manufacturer. Implants will be placed 0.5mm subcrestal. Once the implants have been placed, periapical radiographs and clinical pictures will be taken. Implants will be uncovered 10 weeks after being placed. After performing the incision and elevation a minimal flap, conventional high transmucosal abutments will be screwed using the torque recommended by the manufacturer. Once the abutments have been screwed, periapical radiographs and clinical pictures will be taken. The abutments will not be unscrewed thereafter throughout the study.
Modified shape abutments
Patients will be randomly selected for the modified shape abutments option. Two or three implants will be placed following the drilling protocol suggested by the manufacturer. Implants will be placed 0.5mm subcrestal. Once the implants have been placed, periapical radiographs and clinical pictures will be taken. Implants will be uncovered 10 weeks after being placed. After performing the incision and elevation a minimal flap, modified high transmucosal abutments will be screwed using the torque recommended by the manufacturer. Once the abutments have been screwed, periapical radiographs and clinical pictures will be taken. The abutments will not be unscrewed thereafter throughout the study.
