Morphometric analysis of construct size. There is a significantly decreased construct size in the growth factor (GF) group (group B) compared to group A (without growth factors) (p<0.05) after two weeks. Moreover, the construct size is considerably decreased after four weeks in group B compared to group A. In both groups, cross section area of the implants decreased between week two and four (P > 0.05).
