Determining primary stability for adhesively stabilized dental implants

ConclusionThe
adhesive cement show potential for offering primary implant stability
for different dental implant designs. In this study, the primary
parameters influencing the measured removal torque values were the
implant surface area and diameter. As the liquid cement prevents the use
of insertion torque, considering the relationship between insertion and
removal torque, removal torque can be considered a reliable surrogate
for primary implant stability for bench and pre-clinical settings.Clinical relevanceAt
present, the primary stability of dental implants is linked to the
quality of the host bone, the drill protocol, and the specific implant
design. The adhesive cement might find applications in future clinical
settings for enhancing primary stability of implants under circumstances
where this cannot be achieved conventionally.
