Peri-implant bone microstructural analysis and comparison of resonance frequency analysis before prosthetic placement: a retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Fractal analysis is a mathematical method used for the calculation of bone trabeculation and lacunarity. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between resonance frequency analysis (RFA) and fractal dimension (FD) of peri-implant bone to determine the preload stability of implants.

Materials and methods

In this study, the results of the fractal analysis calculated from the resonance frequency analysis results taken in the 3rd month of the patients who underwent 2-stage implant by the same doctor and the radiographs taken in the same session were evaluated. A hundred implants in 20 patients were applied in this study. The implant stability quotient (ISQ) values of the implants and fractal dimension values of the peri-implant bone were calculated.
