The implants were divided into five groups (n=10): Group 1 (Test) hybrid/conical implants of 3.75 mm x 13 mm placed in a high density bone block with oversized instrumentation; Group 2 (Control) cutting/cylindrical of 3.75 mm x 13 mm, placed in a high density bone block with regular instrumentation; Group 3 (Test) hybrid/conical implants of 4.3 mm x 13 mm placed in a low density bone block with undersized instrumentation; Group 4 (Test) hybrid/conical implants of 4.3 mm x 13 mm placed in a low density bone block with regular instrumentation; Group 5 (Control) compact/conical implants of 4.3 mm x 13 mm<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>placed in a low density bone block with regular instrumentation. Two cases are reported of hybrid implants placed in the maxilla with 12-month follow up. </span></p> <p class="p1"><strong>Results</strong> No significant difference was observed between hybrid/conical implants and the control group, according to final placement torque in high and low density bone. However, undersized instrumentation showed a significantly increased final torque placement for hybrid/conical implant.</p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Conclusions </strong>Implant macrostructure, bone instrumentation technique influence the insertion torque for hybrid/conical implants. At the 12-month follow-up the implants were stable.</span></p>}, number={2}, journal={Journal of Osseointegration}, author={Thomé, G. and Pires, S. and Salatti, R. and Cartelli, C.
