Despite the evolution of implant designs and
surfaces it will always be you, the treating doctor,
together with your patient, who makes the decision
when to load. It is a complex decision that
involves not only the patients’ wishes and general
situation, but of course also several odontological
parameters. One of the most important factors is
the stability of the implant.
The degree of implant stability is hard to determine
once the implant has started to integrate.
Also, at placement, stability is difficult to judge
objectively and the “tactile feeling” or torque
measurements will not work as a baseline for
future comparisons.
Osstell meters make it possible not only
to measure the initial implant stability, but also to
monitor the development of osseointegration
over time.
The Osstell advantages:
- Optimal load decision
- Early warning of problems
- Continuous quality assurance
