While some studies have reported very promising results (94% to 98% success rate), others have demonstrated survival rates below those clinically acceptable (75% to 87%). Moreover, such implants have been associated with increased cervical bone resorption and thread exposure<\/jats:italic>.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:italic><jats:bold>Methods:<\/jats:bold> Between June 1999 and July 2003, 43 patients received treatment with 6 mm diameter tapered hydroxyapatite (HA)\u2010coated implants. A total of 45 implants were placed. All patients were recalled annually after implant exposure. One patient was lost to follow\u2010up after 1 year. Forty\u2010four implants were evaluated at the recall examinations. All implants supported a fixed prosthesis; in the majority of patients (35 implants), it was a single\u2010tooth fixed prosthesis. The mean loading time was 23.4 months (range, 1 to 54 months)<\/jats:italic>.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:italic><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> No implants were lost during the loading period. The overall survival rate was 100%. Crestal bone remodeling was examined using periapical radiographs.
