Effect of Surgical Techniques on Primary Implant Stability and Peri-Implant Bone

The effect of a single remote injection of statin-impregnated poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) microspheres on osteogenesis around titanium implants in rat tibia

“…However, effective methods for the improvement of bone quality have scarcely been reported. Some previous attempts to improve the bone quality of the implant site have included placement techniques, such as implant insertion into smaller dimension holes, and the use of tapered implants [6][7][8]. However, the effects of these techniques are expected to become clear after the accumulation of more evidence.…”

Relation between initial implant stability quotient and bone-implant contact percentage: an in vitro model study

“…Many factors affect the initial stability of an implant, including the surgical technique, the geometry and surface treatment of the implant, and the quality and quantity of the host bone. [3][4][5][6][7] Despite the importance of the initial stability of a dental implant to osseointegration, there is still no method for directly measuring the relative movement at the bone-implant interface level. Histomorphometric evaluation of the bone-implant interface provides information about the condition of the implant anchorage in peri-implant bone, 8,9 but such approaches can be used only in animal studies.…”

“…The inconsistency in the results [7][8][9][10]14,19,21 obtained for the correlation between RFA measurements and BIC might be at least partially because of previous studies using 2-dimensional (2D) histomorphometric evaluations to assess the BIC, as one or only a few histologic sections cannot represent the entire 3-dimensional (3D) BIC between the implant and bone. 14 Therefore, the objective of the present study was to use high-resolution microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) to determine the relation between the initial stability, as measured by RFA, and the BIC percentage (BIC%) obtained using both 2D and 3D approaches.…”

Combining the effects of undersized drilling and bone density on implant insertion torque

“…However, a potential risk of bone necrosis has been assumed due to over compression inserted in bone tissue around of the implant 28 . On this sense, literature shows that this technique should be not the first choice in regions of higher density bones, which was the main reason why the current study did not simulated this scenario.…”
