(a) Bone-to-implant contact (BIC, %) calculated by the length of the green lines divided by the total length of the well (green and red lines); (b) Bone area (BA) calculated by the area marked with green lines divided by the total area of the well. Note that the region-of-interest (ROI) was defined as an area within the three best consecutive threads engaged in the upper cortical bone, and therefore, a total of three threads were used for the calculation. Only one third of ROI is shown for simplicity.
