Abstract

Introduction: To study the evaluation of effectiveness of early loaded versus delayed loaded single tooth implants.
Aims & Objectives: To compare the effect of early loading implant (7-14 days) with delayed loading implant (4-5 months) after surgery on clinical and radiographic parameters, with 6 months follow-up.
Material and Methods: 20 systemically healthy patients present with single missing tooth either in maxilla / mandible were treated with either early loading or delayed loading of single tooth implant.
Results: Significant reduction in the plaque and papillary bleeding index at 6 months post-surgery indicated satisfactory improvement in oral hygiene and gingival condition. Delayed loaded implants group had a success rate of 100%, while early loaded implant group had 90%.

Keywords: Early loading, Delayed loading, Single tooth implant.
