Primary Stability of a Hybrid Implant Compared with Tapered and Cylindrical Implants in an Ex Vivo Model

Abstract

In this ex vivo model, the hybrid implant demonstrated promising primary stability compared with the cylindrical implant. The improved stability of the hybrid implant was especially evident in cancellous bone. The influence of the cortical layer should be recognized when selecting implants for primary stability.

Comparison between tapered and cylindrical implants in the posterior regions of the mandible: A prospective, randomized, split‐mouth clinical trial focusing on implant stability changes during early healing

“…Currently, clinical data related to the healing process such as implant stability quotient (ISQ) values and peri‐implant health are not present in literature. In addition, in vitro studies comparing the performance of tapered and cylindrical implants yielded variable and inconsistent results …”

Associations of Resonance Frequency Analysis with Dynamic Mechanical Analysis of Dental Implant Systems

“…While numerous advanced technologies have been developed to improve the mechanical stability of dental implant systems, there is a lack of reliable means to assess the clinical stability of an implantation . In a laboratory, the stability of dental implant systems is measured by push‐out testing up to fracture or fatigue testing . However, these destructive mechanical testing protocols are not applicable for patient treatments in clinical practice …”

Stability of tapered and parallel‐walled dental implants: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

“…5,17 Implant sites with poor bone quality and immediate implant placement, where primary stability is a prerequisite, seem to be the primary indications for the use of implants with such designs. [19][20][21] The aim of the present systematic review was to compare the influence of tapered and parallelwalled implant design on the primary and secondary implant stability. [19][20][21] The aim of the present systematic review was to compare the influence of tapered and parallelwalled implant design on the primary and secondary implant stability.…”
