Initial results of the Osteo Ti implant system in general dental practice

It is the purpose of this paper to present the preliminary results of 370 consecutively placed Osieo-Ti implants. Two stage screw form endosseous implants ranging in length from 7mm to 20mm in one mm increments were used. Four diameters of implant 2.75mm, 3.00mm, 3.75mm and 4.50mm were used to engage the maximum available width of bone. The larger, 3.75mm and 4.50mm diameter, implants were made from commercially pure titanium and the two smaller diameter, 2.75mm and 3.00mm, implants were manufactured from titanium alloy. The overall success rate for 370 exposed functioning Osteo-Ti implants was 98.6%.
