Abstract
Abstract In recent years, implant treatment has become a popular option and is frequently preferred by patients and doctors. Initial implant stabilization is a vital element for implant-osseointegration and long-term implant success. Salah Huwais conceptualized the osseodensification technique for dental implant placement. Compared to conventional implant osteotomy practices, osseodensification allows a nonsubtractive osteotomy preparation. Specially designed burs are used in a noncutting counterclockwise direction to preserve and condense bone. The present case series aims to explain the implementation of osseodensification for dental implant insertion in the thin bony alveolar process, internal closed sinus elevation with implant placement, and immediate implant insertion in the extraction socket. Three different case reports have been discussed in detail where the osseodensification technique was used with specially designed Densah™ Bur to prepare the osteotomy and simultaneous implant placement. The study also focuses on the technique’s advantages, disadvantages, and indications, as existing in the relevant literature, along with evidence. Osseodensification is a unique procedure that prepares implant sites while conserving the alveolar bone. In the present report of three cases, satisfactory primary stability of implants with conservation of alveolus integrity was accomplished, which resulted in a shorter restoration interval for prosthetic rehabilitation.
