  2. 2. On bone quality and implant stability measurements

    University dissertation from Göteborg University

    Author : Bertil Friberg; Göteborgs universitet.; University of Gothenburg.; [1999]
    Keywords : ODONTOLOGI; ODONTOLOGY; early failures; titanium implants; jaw bone quality; jaw bone volume; cutting torque; implant stability; resonance frequency; one-stage surgery;

    Abstract : In conjuction with placement of oral implants, the jaw bone quality assessment is mainly based on quantitative radiographic measures and the subjective opinion of the performing surgeon. While the primary implant stability is discussed in terms of the pre-set motor torque and the subjective hand-felt perception during final tightening of implants, the secondary stability is defined as the absence of implant mobility.
