Results: 10 implants with length < 10 mm showed failure, 4 implants out of 25 implant with length 10-11.5 mm showed failure and 6 implants out of 35 implants with size >11.5mm showed failure. Out of 45 implants placed in bone with type I quality, 6 showed failure. Out of 30 implants placed in bone with type II quality, 4 showed failure. Out of 20 implants placed in bone with type III quality, 3 showed failure. Out of 15 implants placed in bone with type IV quality, 3 showed failure. The difference was significant (P< 0.05).
