Evaluating the bone changing after receiving one-piece implants supported full arch prosthesis compared to the conventional two-piece implants.
Studying the difference between one-piece and two-piece implants and their effect on bone loss. This will help in simplifying the surgical procedure for full arch implant-supported prosthesis rehabilitation using one-piece implants, eliminating the disturbance of the gum tissue around the implants, potentially reducing the risk of bacterial colonization and inflammation.

one-piece dental implants with multi-units abutment mounted on the implants as a single piece provided with different abutment angulation utilizing these implants for All-On-Four prothesis
Surgical and immediate loading procedures: On the day of implant placement, patients will receive two-piece implant. After crestal incision and full-thickness flap elevation, the implant sites will be prepared aided by a surgical template. 4 implants will be placed, two aligned in an axial orientation and two will be distally aligned (17 degrees). The standard placement procedure as recommended by the manufacturer will be used. The surgical drills with increasing diameters will be used to prepare the implant sites. Implants will be ideally placed at bone level (or 1 mm deeper depending on the soft tissue thickness). After 3 months as a healing phase, a definitive prosthesis will be fabricated using the same abutments, and the marginal bone loss after the osseointegration phase will be assessed.

Peri-implant marginal bone loss
Peri-implant marginal bone loss will be assessed utilizing CBCT. The radiographic evaluation will be performed at baseline and at 3 months after functional loading. Using the first thread of the implant as a standard reference point, the circumference of the Crestal bone level around the implant will be measured in all directions (mesial, distal, buccal, and lingual) in width and height.
Time frame: From implant placement (baseline) and After 3 months (after the osseointegration phase)
