Abstract：Objective To observe and evaluate the clinical effects of minimally invasive flapless technique in dental im-plant surgery. Methods Totally 25 patients(31 implants)who received flapless surgery during the period between Jan-uary 2010 and December 2011 at the Implant Center of Stomatology Hospital of China Medical University were selected as the flapless group and another 25 patients(40 implants)who received traditional surgery during the corresponding pe-riod were selected as the control group. Related clinical data were recorded and analyzed on the day of surgery and fol-low-up,including length of surgery,duration of discomfort after operation,loss of implant,peri-implantitis and level of bone resorption,gingival papilla height,etc. Results One implant was lost in the flapless group,while no implant failed in the control group. Less bone resorption was observed in the flapless group(P < 0.05),while gingival papilla index showed no significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05). The length of surgery and duration of discomfort af-ter operation in the flapless group were significantly less than the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion On the basis of strict control of operation indication,flapless surgery will save operation time to a large extent,relieve patients postopera-tive reaction and obtain more satisfactory clinical results.
