This study aims to compare 2 different groups of patients with both a healed site in the upper posterior sector after extractions, one treated with ultra-short implants, and another with long implants with bone regeneration. The objective is to evaluate if short-implants are superior in terms of better clinical outcomes, survival rates and safety, reduced surgical time, postoperative discomfort, and complication risk compared to conventional implants and bone regeneration.
