Abstract

ABSTRACT Background: Dental implants are now the typical tooth replacement method. Because it speeds up therapy, quick functional loading—attaching prosthetic restorations to implants following surgery—has become popular. Flapless implant implantation reduces surgical stress and expedites recovery. Methods: A prospective comparative study of 100 flap and flapless dental implant patients was done. Patient-reported outcomes, implant survival, peri-implant parameters, and surgical complications were assessed. Statistical analysis compared the two groups’ results. Results: Both flap and flapless methods exhibited good implant survival and similar peri-implant characteristics. Patients reported equal postoperative comfort and satisfaction in both groups. Surgical complications were similar for flap and flapless surgeries. Conclusion: In immediate functional loading, flap and flapless implant insertion are equally effective and safe. Both methods yield dependable implant survival, peri-implant health, patient comfort, and surgical safety. Dental professionals should evaluate patient variables and anatomical aspects while choosing an implant implantation surgery. Implant dentistry needs further study on long-term results and treatment regimens.
