Results: Two thirds of the patients in the study group were female, according to this study with age range from 30 > 40yrs old and showed significant decrease in average probing depths& demonstrated significant reduction in pain intensity when compared to the control group. In addition, all implant stability in both groups were stable. Conclusion: Implementation of post-operative nursing protocol among patients with partial edentulous showed an improvement on their oral health status and increase dental implant success rate.
