The author wishes to make the following corrections to this paper [1].
1. Change in Figure
In the original article, there was a mistake in Figure 1 as published. During the check
of the manuscript the authors observed that an incorrect picture was uploaded during the
submission phases. The corrected Figure 1 appears below. The authors apologize for any
inconvenience caused and state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. The original
article has been updated.
2. Text Correction
The authors provide some additional necessary information about the limitations of
the study and the conclusion section.
“Moreover, the use of manual bone spreaders preserves a significant amount of
bone, exploiting the elastic feature of the soft bone, positively improving the implant
primary stability. Nevertheless, several in vivo studies are required to analyze any possible
difference between the surgical techniques (BC and OD) performed in this study, in terms
of histological healing and long- term clinical data with success rates”.
Many sentences in the Discussion section have been modified in part to making sure
that the readers could better understand the manuscript’s aim:
“According to the literature, there is no clear correlation between PIT and ISQ. Furher-
more, ISQ is not an effective one-time measurement parameter, however it is designed to
be a time-related parameter [31]”.
