Abstract
Purpose: İmplants are now being used to replace the missing teeth. The success of the implant depends on many factors such as oral hygiene, implant material used, bone quality and smoking. The present retrospective research was conducted to evaluate marginal bone loss, gingival index, plaque index and bleeding and bleeding on Probing in the distal and mesial regions of the implant in smokers and non-smokers. Materials and Methods: For this retrospective study, participants were selected from all patients who had been implanted between February 2012 and June 2017 in the dental faculty.
