Osseodensification Versus Motor-Driven Expanders' Techniques for Increasing Bone Density With Simultaneous Implant Placement

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Alveolar Bone Loss
Interventions
Procedure: Motor driven expanders' technique
Procedure: Osseodensification technique
Registration Number
NCT04609475
Lead Sponsor
Nourhan M.Aly
Brief Summary

The aim of this study was to compare and measure the amount of bone density and ridge width gained with motor driven expanders and densifying burs with simultaneous dental implant placement.

Detailed Description

Seven patients were treated by the osseodensification technique and another seven were treated by the motor-driven expanders' technique with simultaneous implant placement.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Implant stabilityup to 6 months

Stability was assessed using resonance frequency analysis measured with the Osstell device instrument. The Osstell unit records a numeric value of 1-100 which is referred to as the implant stability quotient (ISQ). The measurements were performed and 3 mean of three readings were recorded.

Bone densityup to 6 months

This will be assessed using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)

Post-operative painup to 1 month

Pain was assessed using a 10-point Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The lower values indicates lower pain levels and higher values indicates higher pain levels
