Implant Osteotomy
Conditions
Brief summary
The preparation of the implant site has a major influence on the success rate and long-term survival of dental implants. Piezoelectric devices and special implant drilling inserts are now emerging to replace conventional drills.
Interventions
Sequential osteotomy drilling was done using mectron piezosurgery implant drilling protocol
bone osteotomy for implant placement was done following the BEGO Semados RS/RSX TrayPlus conventional drilling
