ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The success of dental implants depend on implant design, surgical technique, bone density, implant morphology and postoperative care. Initial stability is utmost importance and is of concern in low density bone. The osseo-densification strategy enhance primary stability by raising density of the osteotomy site walls by non-subtractive drilling, unlike conventional technique.OBJECTIVE:
The aim of this in vivo study was to assess and compare the osseo-densification implant drilling technique with conventional implant drilling in terms of primary implant stability along with other factors, plaque index, bleeding on probe, pocket depth and radiographic assessment of bone density, marginal bone loss using CBCT.METHOD:
A total of 20 patients aged between 40 and 59 years were included in this research. A split-mouth configuration of 40 implants was used. In the osseo-densification group, specialized (Densah) bur kit was used to insert 20 implants on one side. In the conventional group, standard bur kit was used to insert 20 implants on the opposite side of the jaw. For each patient, clinical and radiographic assessment was performed at regular intervals at the beginning (immediately after surgery), seven months, and a year following surgery.RESULTS:
With the exception of bone density, which was statistically significant in favour of the osseo-densification group immediately after surgery, primary and secondary stability, plaque index, bleeding on probe, pocket depth and even marginal bone loss were not significantly different between the two groups in this investigation.CONCLUSION:
Osseo-densification technique provided a better primary stability in the low density bone cases thus, can be consider as a trustworthy treatment for speeding up the healing process while also maintaining marginal bone integrity following loading. Use of specialized bur while drilling procedure improves the density around the implants.Key words
