The role of the Periotest in the clinical evaluation of osseointegration has been well documented. Some clinicians have used the initial Periotest values at second-stage surgery as a baseline to measure changes in integration at the bone-implant interface over time. The purpose of this pilot study was to compare Periotest values made with and without healing abutments in place. A statistically significant difference was found between the Periotest values that were recorded with and without healing abutments, with the values without the healing abutments being more negative and suggestive of greater osseointegration. |
