Clinical Evaluation of Short (6 mm) and Longer Implants Placed Side by Side in Posterior Partially Edentulous Area: A 3-Year Observational Study

Figure 3

Thickness of the cortical bone at the site of implant placement on each cross-sectional computed tomography image. The cortical bone surface surrounding the implant model was measured at 3 points: the buccal (A), center (C), lingual, or palatal (B) sides, and the trabecular bone CT value of the implant placement site was measured (D).
