Implant Primary Stability and Ridge Dimensional Changes Utilizing the Osseodensification Protocol
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare ridge dimensional changes between densification and standard drilling protocols and to compare primary and secondary stability of implants placed by bone densification and standard drilling protocols

Experimental: OsseoDensification (OD) protocol
|
Device: OsseoDensification (OD) protocol
Osseodensification is a drilling process by which bone is being compacted and auto-grafted in an outwardly expanding direction from the osteotomy. When the osseodensification drills are being rotated in a reversed, non-cutting direction a strong and dense layer of bone is formed along the walls and base of the osteotomy.

Active Comparator: standard drilling (SD) protocol
|
Device: standard drilling (SD) protocol (NobelReplace® Conical)
osteotomy preparation through bone excavation is necessary in implant site development for the placement of dental implants. The process involves a forward cutting process with removal of bone tissue creating appropriate size osteotomy for the dental implant.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in bone ridge width at crest [day of implant surgery]
bone ridge width will be measured using a Mitutoyo Digimatic Caliper
- Change in bone ridge width at 5mm apical from crest [day of implant surgery]
bone ridge width will be measured using a Mitutoyo Digimatic Caliper
- Change in bone ridge width at 10mm apical from crest [day of implant surgery]
bone ridge width will be measured using a Mitutoyo Digimatic Caliper
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Primary stability of the implants as measured by the insertion torque values [day of implant surgery]
- Change in primary stability of the implants as indicated by the implant stability quotient (ISQ) as measured by the resonance frequency analysis using the Ostell ISQ meter [baseline(after implant placement),3 weeks after implant placement and 6 weeks after implant placement]
- volume of the ridge as assessed by the Cone beam computer tomography (CBCT) [6 months post implantation]
- buccolingual width of the ridge as assessed by the Cone beam computer tomography (CBCT) [6 months post implantation]
