This study involved histometry of the healed tissues around submerged and nonsubmerged dental implants in beagle dogs. In a split‐mouth design, 19 submerged and 19 nonsubmerged commercially pure titanium implants, titanium plasma‐sprayed in the bone anchoring part and smooth in the transmucosal portion were placed in the mandibles of 6 dogs. Oral hygiene was performed 3 times weekly. After 3 months of healing, transmucosal abutments were inserted in the submerged implants. Six weeks after second stage surgery, the dogs were sacrificed and specimens obtained and processed for histology and histometry. Using a light microscope and a digitizing pad, the distance from implant top to mucosa border (DIM), the extent of epithelial downgrowth (ED), the attachment level (AL). the length of connective tissue contact (CTC) and the distance of the first coronal alveolar bone contact from the implant top (DIB) were measured at the mesial and distal aspects. Means+standard deviations for submerged and nonsubmerged implants were calculated, with the dog being the unit of measure. No statistically significant differences between submerged and nonsubmerged implants here found for DIM, CTC and DIB. However, significant differences were observed for ED and AL. This study in beagle dogs indicates that the apical extension of the peri‐implant epithelium is significantly greater and the attachment level significantly lower adjacent to submerged implants with second‐stage transmucosal abutments than in nonsubmerged, one‐stage implants.
