After the staining procedures, we performed bone histomorphometry using four methods. A: (1) Bone-to-implant contact (BIC): determination of the percentage of direct contact surface between the mineralized bone and the surface of the CoCr alloy; (2) absent area: determination of the percentage of non-contact area between the total area in a 500 µm region. B: (3) bone area (500 µm): determination of the percentage of new bone formation and neovascularization area between the total area in a 500 µm region; 4) bone area (1000 µm): determination of the percentage of new bone formation and neovascularization area between the total area in a 1000 µm region.
