Correlation between Periotest value and implant stability quotient: a systematic review
Biomed Tech (Berl). 2023 Jul 26. doi: 10.1515/bmt-2023-0194. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOBJECTIVES: To determine, through clinical studies, whether there is a correlation between the Periotest value (PTV) and the implant stability quotient (ISQ).CONTENT: Methods to evaluate the stability of dental implants.SUMMARY: A search was performed in the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases for articles on the proposed subject up to January 29, 2023, using search terms that combined "resonance frequency analysis" and "Periotest" with "correlation" or "relationship"; and combinations of "implant stability quotient" and "Pe...
