An Insight into the Concept of Osseodensification-Enhancing the Implant Stability and Success
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research - Year 2018, Vol 12, Issue 7
Abstract
Osseointegration is an important factor which contributes to the long term success of dental implants. Many factors, including surgical techniques, bone quantity and quality are a strong base for achieving primary stability. And this primary stability is considered to be a prerequisite for establishing good osseointegration. Osseodensification (OD), a recently developed interesting technique enhances the bone density around dental implants and increases primary stability. Many studies have been carried out on the efficacy of this new surgical technique. The purpose of this review article is to discuss in detail on OD procedure.
