Screw loosening in wider vs standard-diameter implants.
Type of implants | Total no of implants | No of implants with loosened screws | % of screw loosening | RR | 95% CI | p value |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Wide-diameter implants (>4.5 mm) | 89 | 6 | 6.74% | 0.6663 | 0.2765–1.6058 | 0.3656 |
Standard-diameter implants (3.75–4.2 mm) | 191 | 20 | 10.47% |
