Dental Implant Stability
Conditions
Keywords
secondary implant stability
Brief summary
This clinical trial aims to compare two drilling protocols Underdrilling and Osseodensification for placing dental implants in patients with low bone density. The purpose is to compare which technique provides better primary and secondary implant stability in the posterior regions of the jaw with low bone density. The hypothesis is that there is no significant difference in implant stability between the two protocols.
Detailed description
Achieving sufficient primary stability becomes difficult in areas with low bone density. One technique commonly used is Underdrilling protocol.With the Underdrilling technique, the final osteotomy is smaller than the diameter of the implant to be placed.A relatively new Osseodensification protocol, introduced by Huwais in 2013, employs specially designed bur that smoothly compact the bone as they expand an osteotomy. This may prove to be particularly helpful in cases with low bone quality.This clinical trial aims to compare the implant stability using these drilling protocols
Interventions
PROCEDUREOsseodensification
Osseodensification uses specially designed burs to densify osteotomy site
PROCEDUREUnderdrilling
In underdrilling the osteotomy is smaller than implant diameter to be placed

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Implant stability | 12-18 months | It compares Primary stability and Secondary stability after implant placement. Primary stability is recorded by insertion torque values from manual torque wrench. Secondary stability is recorded by resonance frequency analysis. |
