Osseodensification in Enhancing Implant Stability and Ridge Expansion in Esthetic Region

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Dental Implant
Bone Expantion
Registration Number
NCT06667778
Lead Sponsor
Hams Hamed Abdelrahman
Brief Summary

Dental implants supported restorations have been widely accepted as one of the treatment modalities to replace missing teeth and to restore human masticatory function. Successful osseointegration from the clinical standpoint is a measured by implant stability, which occurs after implant integration. Osseodensification is a bio-mechanical site preparation technique. It utilizes a multi-fluted densifying bur technology that creates and expands a pilot hole without excavating significant amounts of bone tissue through a unique, highly controllable, fast, and efficient procedure with minimal heat elevation.

Aim of the study: Is to evaluate and compare the efficacy of using osseodensification compared to conventional bone expansion in implant stability and ridge expansion.
