BIC, bone‒implant contact; BV, bone volume; PS, pullout strength. Effect sizes were calculated using Eta-squared (η²) and converted to Cohen’s f to quantify the magnitude of differences between groups. Values of less than 0.25 indicate small effects, 0.25–0.4 (*) indicate medium effects, and values greater than 0.4 (**) indicate large effects
