Implants need to be how many mm from buccal plate, lingual plate, inferior border, sinus, nasal cavity?

  1. 0.5 mm

  2. 1 mm

  3. 1.5 mm

  4. 2 mm

The correct answer is: 1 mm

Implants should be placed at least 1 mm from the buccal and lingual plates, the inferior border, and the sinus and nasal cavity to minimize the risk of complications such as perforation of the bone or interference with vital structures. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not meet the recommended distance requirements. Option A is too close and may lead to damage of surrounding structures, while options C and D are too far and may not provide enough support for the implant.
