The study aimed to verify the quantification of implant stability after immediate loading using AnyCheck (R). Results showed that AnyCheck (R) is useful for quantifying the implant stability, which can potentially shorten treatment duration and increase success rates for immediate loading.
Implant treatment has evolved and is now performed using various techniques. However, the osseointegration duration required for poor primary stability or immediate loading is unclear and depends largely on the surgeon's experience. We sought to verify whether implant stability can be quantified after immediate loading, using AnyCheck((R)). Six implants were placed in simulated bone blocks classified by bone quality as D1-D4 and further divided into healing abutment and provisional crown groups. The implant stability test (IST) values of both groups were measured using AnyCheck((R)). All bone qualities from D1 to D4 differed significantly between the provisional crown and healing abutment groups (p < 0.001). In both groups, the IST values were the highest for D1 bone and lowest for D4 bone. There were significant differences in bone quality between the provisional crown and healing abutment groups. The correlations between the groups differed based on bone quality. However, the IST values of both groups differed by a minimum of 4 and maximum of 7. These results suggest that AnyCheck((R)) is useful for quantifying the implant stability after immediate loading. Using an index to quantify the implant and bone stability for immediate loading may shorten treatment duration and increase success rates.
