An implant that had penetrated the nasal cavity of a 53-year-old woman was removed after 10 months. The implant had a resorbable blast media surface and an external connection. Histomorphometric evaluation showed that the mean bone-implant contact ratio was 88.08%, and excellent osseointegration was observed. The mean bone fill between threads was 78.46%.
