Additionally, the study aimed to determine a clinically relevant threshold for the radiographic vertical misfit gap at the ISP, when present, and to identify potential risk factors associated with changes in bone levels.  \nMethods: This study involved subjects who received ISPs for tooth replacement therapy. Standardized intraoral periapical radiographs were taken 10 years after loading to assess the radiographic distance between the implant shoulder and the most coronal point of crestal bone (DIB). ISP marginal gaps were categorized as no gap or gap, with vertical dimensions categorized as 0 mm,> 0- \u003C 0.1 mm, and ≥0.1 mm. A multivariable linear mixed-effect model was applied to control for potential confounders. Results: A total of 301 patients and 505 implants with a 10.6 ± 0.7years follow-up were analyzed. ISPs without gaps exhibited statistically significantly lower DIB values (3.22 ± 0.8mm) than those with gaps (3.43 ± 0.6 mm; p = 0.001) . Gaps ≥0.1 mm were associated with statistically significantly higher DIB values (3.45 ± 0.7 mm; p = 0.001) compared with gaps between > 0 and \u003C 0.1 mm (3.36 ± 0.5 mm; p = 0.001), or no gaps (3.22 ± 0.7 mm; p = 0.001). Each increment of 0.1 mm in the vertical crestal gap corresponded to a significant increase in DIB values (0.08 mm; p = 0.03). Finally, smoking and a history of periodontitis were independent risk factors for increased DIB.  \nConclusions: Marginal misfit of ISP affects peri-implant bone stability, with gaps ≥0.1 mm linked to higher DIB. Smoking and periodontitis are independent risk factors for increased DIB.  \n1 | Introduction  \nImplant-supported prostheses (ISP) are highly effective in replacing missing teeth, restoring oral function, health, esthetics,  \nand comfort, ultimately improving patients' quality of life (Braun et al. 2025; Buser et al. 2012; Duong et al. 2022; Howe et al. 2019; Raabe et al. 2024).
