Abstract: | The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that measurements of implant stability using resonance frequency analysis (RFA) correlate with histomorphometric data of bone anchorage. Ten adult female foxhounds received a total of 80 implants in their mandibles 3 months after removal of all premolar teeth. At the time of implant placement, torque required for bone tapping was registered as a measure of bone density and immediately after placement implant stability was assessed using RFA. RFA measurements were repeated at the time of implant retrieval after 1 month (5 dogs) and 3 months (5 dogs). Peri-implant bone regeneration was assessed histomorphometrically by measuring bone-implant contact (BIC) and the volume density of the newly formed peri-implant bone (BVD). RFA values at the time of implant placement did not correlate with the torque required to tap the bone for implant placement. After 1 and 3 months, RFA values were significantly increased compared with baseline values. BIC and BVD, however, had increased significantly during this interval. There was no correlation between bone-implant contact and RFA values nor between peri-implant bone density and RFA values. Thus, the hypothesis could not be verified. It is concluded that the validity of the individual measurement of implant stability using RFA should be considered with caution. |
