Inclusion Criteria  
Age From  30.00 Year(s)
Age To  60.00 Year(s)
Gender  Both 
Details  Male or female patients aged 30 to 60 years with HbA1c levels ranging from 8.1 to 10 are eligible for the study. Participants should be on oral hypoglycemic drugs, such as Metformin, Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors like Sitagliptin, or Alpha-Glucosidase inhibitors like Acarbose and Miglitol, which do not interfere with bone healing. The study includes individuals with a single bounded edentulous space, primarily in the lower posteriors (premolars and molars), with intact proximal teeth and sufficient bone quantity for implant placement. Adequate bone height (at least 13mm) and bone width (at least 6mm) are required. Eligible patients must be cooperative, motivated, and maintain good oral hygiene. Additionally, participants should exhibit stable occlusion without parafunctional habits and have local factors present without signs of clinical inflammation. This study is conducted under the supervision of the Institutional Review Board of SRM Dental College, Ramapuram. 
 
ExclusionCriteria 
Details  Patients with active periodontal disease, evidence of attachment loss greater than 1 to 2mm, or radiographic bone loss extending beyond the middle third of the adjacent teeth are excluded from the study. Additional exclusion criteria include the use of antimicrobial agents within three months before the study, a diagnosis of systemic diseases other than type 2 diabetes mellitus, and bone disorders such as hyperparathyroidism, osteoporosis, or Paget’s disease. Patients who have undergone steroid therapy, anti-inflammatory treatment, or bisphosphonate use within the past six months, as well as those treated with radiotherapy or chemotherapy, are not eligible. Chronic alcoholics, smokers, and individuals with a history of drug abuse are excluded. Pregnancy and lactation are also disqualifying factors. Furthermore, patients who do not comply with the one-year follow-up requirement are excluded from the study.

2.To assess the Implant stability quotient (ISQ) values using resonance frequency analysis (RFA) during Early Loading protocol.
3. To assess the Early Wound Healing Index (EWHI) using Huang et al index (2005) at the 1st week, 2nd week, and 4th week during the Early Loading protocol, comparing the Control (SLA) and Test groups (SLA ACTIVE & Laser Micro-Grooved Implants).

Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Response - NO
Brief Summary   This study evaluates how microgeometrical surface modifications of dental implants impact stability, crestal bone preservation, peri-implant health, and implant survival, particularly in diabetic individuals. The findings will provide insights to optimize implant selection, treatment planning, and patient care, contributing to improved long-term success and patient outcomes.
