Popis: | Aims: To explore the relationship between primary implant stability and different parameters related to implant or bone properties. Materials and methods: Twenty-four patients received a total of 136 Straumann SLActive implants. Resonance frequency analysis (RFA) was performed at implant placement, and RFA and Periotest (PTV) were scored at loading. Bone density [Hounsfield (HU) scores] and coronal cortical thickness at osteotomy sites were measured from pre-operative computerized tomography scans. Results: Implant length, diameter or the presence of bony dehiscence did not have a significant effect on the mean RFA scores at implant insertion. Significant linear relations were found between RFA or PTV scores and HU values (P |
