Osseodensification technique

Details and patient eligibility

About

The aim of this study was to compare and measure the amount of bone density and ridge width gained with motor driven expanders and densifying burs with simultaneous dental implant placement.

Full description

Seven patients were treated by the osseodensification technique and another seven were treated by the motor-driven expanders' technique with simultaneous implant placement.
