Abstract

Background and Objectives: Dental implants have revolutionized oral rehabilitation. Primary implant stability (PIS) of dental implants is influenced by several factors, including bone quality, implant length and diameter. The reason for this research is to assess the correlation between (PIS) and implant dimensions (diameter and length) in relation to various bone types.

Methods: In a cross-sectional observational study, 41 dental implants with different diameters and lengths were inserted into bones with different densities. Implant beds were prepared, and (PIS)was assessed using a novel damping capacity measurement device (AnyCheck) at the time of implant insertion.

Results: Implants with a wider diameter exhibit a mean stability of 69.33 compared to a mean stability of 65 for implants with a narrower diameter. The disparity between these groups was statistically significant, with a p-value of 0.036, and longer implants exhibited greater stability, with a mean value of 70.79, compared to shorter implants, had a mean stability of 64.68. This difference was significant within statistical parameters, with a p-value of 0.018, Regarding bone quality, implants with good bone quality exhibited a mean stability of 69.6 compared to 67.43 for implants with poor bone quality, this observed difference did not reach statistical significance with a p- value of 0.82, with a 95%confidence interval.

Conclusions: The findings indicate that increasing implant length and diameter significantly enhances (PIS), while bone quality did not significantly improved stability, underscoring the critical role of implant dimensions in achieving better treatment outcomes.
