Osseodensification Versus Conventional Drilling Effect on Implant Stability
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
A total of 80 implants were placed in the posterior region of the maxilla in 40 patients in a split-mouth design. Bone quality was classified into type I, II, III, IV, or V as assessed preoperatively on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) . Primary implant stability was measured with insertion torque and resonance frequency analysis (ISQ values). Secondary stability was measured by ISQ at abutment installation.

Experimental: Osseodensification (test) group installation of 40 implants using the osseodensification protocol + measurement of implant stability (ISQ) |
Procedure: osseodensification drilling
Implant mechanical and biological stability measured using ISQ values at the time of implant placement and at abutment connection for 40 implants placed in the posterior maxillary area using the osseodensification protocol.

Active Comparator: Conventional (control) group installation of 40 implants using the conventional drilling protocol + measurement of implant stability (ISQ) |
Procedure: conventional drilling
Implant mechanical and biological stability measured using ISQ values at the time of implant placement and at abutment connection for 40 implants placed in the posterior maxillary area using the conventional drilling protocol.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Mechanical or primary stability [directly after implant placement]
ISQ values at implant installation
- Biological or secondary stability [4 months after implant installation]
ISQ values at abutment connection
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Torque value (N/cm) [directly after implant insertion]
Torque value shown at the physiodispenser screen at the end of implant installation
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
(a) Bilateral edentulism in the maxillary posterior region dating back more than 6 months,
-
(b) sufficient bone height (distance between the bone crest and maxillary sinus >8 mm) and width at the alveolar crest (≥6 mm) that would not necessitate bone augmentation,
-
(c) at least 2 mm vestibular keratinized mucosa width and 3 mm mucosa thickness,
-
(d) full-mouth plaque and bleeding scores <20%.
Exclusion Criteria:
-
patients with systemic diseases, conditions, or used medications having the potential to impair surgery, bone, and wound healing dynamics (such as diabetes) will be excluded.
-
patients who are allergic to antibiotics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
-
bone height <8mm
-
ridge and soft tissue deficiencies requiring augmentation procedures and
-
endodontic or periodontal lesions neighboring the edentulous sites will be also excluded.
