Dental implants placed on bone subjected to vertical alveolar distraction show the same performance as those placed on primitive bone.

At 3 years, these were higher in the Distraction Group, but did not reach statistical significance ( Table 2 ), (Fig. 2 ). -Peri-implant bone resorption in relation to other variables -Sex / Peri-implant bone resorption By relating the sex of both groups with peri-implant bone resorption, we observed that the Distraction Group showed a greater average of resorption in men (0.54 ± 0.11 mm) at the time of loading.
