This study evaluated factors influencing the survival and success rates of 30 dental implants placed in 20 patients over a period of 6 months to 1 year. The results showed a 100% survival rate for the implants, with all implants meeting the criteria for implant health and success. Marginal bone loss was found between implant placement and 6 months post-placement, but no significant additional bone loss after 6 months. Patient and implant factors like bone quality, torque values, and implant design and dimensions did not significantly influence bone loss or implant success rates.
