Radiographic evaluation involved CT radiographs taken for every patient immediate and 6 months postoperatively to evaluate the changes in bone. While histomorphometric evaluation involved transcortical bone biopsies taken after 6 months during the second stage surgery for implant placement UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
