About

This study aimed to assess whether preoperative characteristics of the implant site, such as bone density and alveolar ridge width, assessed using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), are significantly associated with primary stability, as assessed by resonance frequency analysis (RFA) and final insertion torque value (ITV), and thereby investigate if it is feasible to predict primary stability preoperatively using this form of radiologic examination of the planned implant site. All patients underwent preoperative CBCT. The bone density and alveolar ridge width were assessed. The primary implant stability quotient (ISQ) values were assessed by a wireless magnetic-based Osstell ISQ RF Analyzer.

Full description

The quality and quantity of bone available for placing dental implants are key factors in the success of these implants. Implants placed in bone with insufficient quantity or poor quality have a higher risk of failure. As a result, evaluating the bone structure prior to implant placement surgery is essential for proper planning of the treatment.

Enrollment: 72 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 70 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

1. Patients must be free from any systemic conditions that would contraindicate dental implant surgery.
2. Good oral hygiene.
3. Age above 18 years.
4. The planned implant site must have sufficient alveolar bone volume.

Exclusion criteria

1. Patients who have undergone radiation therapy to the head and neck region within the last 12 months.
2. Uncontrolled diabetes.
3. Patients who underwent dental extractions or bone augmentation at the planned implant site during the last six months in order to guarantee uniform bone maturation.
4. Severe clenching or bruxism is present.
5. Acute infection at the planned implant site.
6. Implant sites requiring a procedure for bone gain.

Experimental group

Description:

Participants in this arm underwent preoperative Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scans to assess bone density and alveolar ridge width. The data obtained from these scans was used to guide dental implant placement, with the primary goal of predicting the primary stability of the implant. The intervention involved using CBCT technology to gather precise anatomical details that help optimize implant placement and ensure adequate bone support for the implant.
