Influence of Implant Insertion Torque on Post-Surgical Marginal Bone Stability
Sponsor: International Piezosurgery Academy
Summary
The aim of this prospective, multicenter observational study is to evaluate the influence of various surgical parameters (maximum insertion torque; average insertion torque; final insertion torque; area under the torque curve; intercept and slope of the least squares regression line of the torque curve; implant stability quotient measured immediately after implant insertion) on implant osseointegration and on peri-implant marginal bone loss occurring during the first three months of submerged healing.

Conditions
Interventions
implant insertion
Following local anesthesia (articaine 4% with epinephrine 1:100,000), a minimally invasive full-thickness flap will be elevated. Implant site preparation will be performed with twist drills and the implant will be inserted. Implant stability (ISQ) will be measured in the mesio-distal, disto-mesial, bucco-lingual, and linguo-buccal directions using a resonance frequency analysis device (Osstell Beacon, Osstell, Göteborg, Sweden) with a single-use magnetic peg specific to the implant (SmartPeg Type 07, Osstell, Göteborg, Sweden). The flap will be closed using non-resorbable monofilament sutures, and the implant will be submerged (two-stage protocol).
