Dental implantology is the state of the art technique to replace missing teeth. Implant stability of implant jeopardizes its longevity and success of treatment. This study evaluates the implant stability of implant before and after 4 months of the implant placement, but before prosthetically loading it. Ten two-stage implants of Life care and Nobel Biocare dental implants were placed in 20 patients. Digital OPG was taken on the day of implant placement. After 4 months, at the time of second stage surgery, the implant stability was evaluated by the Periotest instrument. Four months after the implant placement, Periotest evaluation showed a mean of 1.9, which indicated that implants were well osseointegrated and stable. Even before prosthetically loading the two-stage implant, crestal bone loss of 0.6-0.9 mm occurred around the implant. The smooth polished collar design of the implant may have contributed to crestal bone loss. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
