The basal cortical was larger than the lingual cortical bone, although it did not show any significant differences with the lingual zone (p=0.210); the cancellous bone observed was on average 5 mm from the superior point and 5.07 mm in the inferior point, being larger at the level of the central incisors and smaller at the canine level.

The shape differences recorded for the three curves are generated by two factors: the first one is generated by the differences in the bone density between each specimen; the second factor is cause both by the differences in the angular starting position of the screw and the thickness of the bone layers (cortical and cancellous).
