Each enrolled patient received one implant placed with the partial-thickness flap disconnect mode (PT Test Group) or the full-thickness flap disconnect mode (FT Control Group) from the same implant system (Anyridge, MegaGen Implant Co., Gyeongbuk, South Korea). Each implant was placed at 0.5 mm sub-crest as per protocol guidelines. This choice was made according to the current scientific literature. This implant system has specific macrostructural and microstructural techniques that allow high levels of standards. The fixture-abutment connection is internally conical at 2.8 mm with 5° indexing: this feature makes it possible to reduce the prosthetic microgap, move the platform away from the bone margin while maintaining an optimal crestal margin and prevent rotation or unscrewing of the prosthetic component. Each implant was placed at 1 mm sub-crest as per protocol guidelines. This choice was made according to the current scientific literature.
