Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the differences in marginal bone loss and implant failure between tilted and axial dental implants, highlighting the potential benefits and drawbacks of angulated implant positioning.
  • An extensive literature search included 8 systematic reviews or meta-analyses, analyzing outcomes such as implant failure rates and bone loss measurements over different follow-up periods.
  • Results showed no significant short-term differences in bone loss or implant failure between tilted and axial implants, but longer-term studies indicated slightly more bone loss associated with tilted implants over time, while overall failure rates were not significantly different.
