OBJECTIVES

Resonance frequency analysis (RFA) is used to monitor implant stability. Its output, the Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ), supposedly correlates with insertion torque, a common measurement of primary stability. However, the reliability of RFA in condensed bone remains unclear.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

In this human cadaver study in edentulous jaws and fresh extraction sockets, implants were inserted using a split-mouth approach into condensed or untreated bone. Mean ISQ, peak insertion torque, and pre- and postoperative bone volume fractions (BV/TV) were assessed.

RESULTS

In edentulous jaws, insertion torque and ISQ correlated both in untreated (r = 0.63, p = 0.02) and in condensed (r = 0.82, p  < 0.01) bone. In extraction sockets, insertion torque and ISQ only correlated in untreated (r = 0.78, p < 0.01), but not in condensed bone (r = 0.15, p = 0.58). In all edentulous jaws, preoperative BV/TV correlated with insertion torque (r = 0.90, p < 0.0001), ISQ (r = 0.64, p < 0.001), and changes in BV/TV (r = -0.71, p < 0.01). In all extraction sockets, preoperative BV/TV did not correlate with either insertion torque (r = 0.33, p = 0.15), ISQ (r = 0.38, p = 0.09), or changes in BV/TV (r = -0.41, p = 0.09). Joint analysis identified preoperative BV/TV as a predictor of postoperative BV/TV (p < 0.001), insertion torque (p < 0.001), and ISQ (p < 0.001).

CONCLUSIONS

RFA is feasible for monitoring stability after late implant placement into condensed bone, but not after immediate placement into condensed fresh extraction sites.
