Abstract

AIM: This study aimed to investigate and assess primary and secondary dental implant stability during the
osseointegration period.
METHODS: A total of 77 implants were placed in 42 patients with 26 males and 16 females. The study was
conducted by comparing the resonance frequency analysis (RFA) values of the implants inserted in the lower jaw.
RFA was done immediately after implant insertion and after 12 weeks. Results were statistically evaluated using
SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 7.1. Level of significance was set at P < 0.05.
RESULTS: Significant differences were detected between the primary and secondary stability values,
respectively. Maximum RFA value of 88 and the minimum value of 52 were observed. Stability values increased
during the following three months, and all implants were successfully integrated without complication.
CONCLUSION: Our results indicate and suggest that there is a strong linear correlation between implant stability
and ISQ values that can be directly estimated by the RFA, especially in the posterior edentulous mandible. Osstell
implant device could represent a useful tool which can be used to identify the risk for implant failure
