Abstract
To evaluate the better method of implant insertion into the osteotomy site in compromised quality bone for attaining optimal primary stability and thereby achieving the osseointegration for the ultimate success of implant. A total of 32 specimens (wood blocks) simulating D4 bone, were categorized into two groups. The osteotomy site was prepared as per the protocol and implants were placed till the level of the block. The insertion torque was quantified using digital Kratos torque meter. While the implants were inserted and abutments placed by hand ratcheting in the first group; they were motor-driven in the second group. Later pullout test was carried out in universal testing machine and results were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows Software, version 22 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). The mean pull out force values obtained in implants placed by hand driven method were 624.375 N while the force values for implants inserted by motor-driven was 692.625 N. There was a statistically significant difference between hand and motor driven implant into the osteotomy site (p<0.05) between the groups. Of the different methods of implant insertion evaluated in this study, motor-driven imply to have a better primary stability indicating better integration with the bone to become a successful implant.
