Bone loss around dental implants is generally measured by monitoring changes in marginal bone level using radiographs. After the first year of implantation, an implant should have <0.2 mm annual loss of marginal bone level to satisfy the criteria of success. However, the success rate of dental implants depends on the amount of the crestal bone around the implants. The main aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the crestal bone loss around implants placed with particulate β-Tricalcium Phosphate Bone Graft and platelet concentrates.
