Illustration of histomorphometry methodology. (a) the area of interest for BAFO and BIC evaluation was determined from the first thread of the implant to the fourth thread’s beginning (dashed rectangle). The red line delimitation was used to determine the BIC value, which was later transformed into a percentage. The bone area fraction occupancy (BAFO) analysis was calculated after replication the design line of the implant profile 270 µm away from this profile. (b) SCD group after 14 days; (c) SCD group after 28 days; (d) OD group after 14 days, and (e) OD group after 28 days. Stain: Toluidine Blue and Acid Fuchsin stained. Scale bar: 100 μm.
