Course Information
There can always be difficulties in determining the
osseointegration status when an implant is to be loaded with the prosthesis.
Nevertheless, it is vital to know whether the implant is stable. Research today
demonstrates that implants can be subject to immediate or early loading, but
there were no objective standard methods of determining implant stability which
will be very helpful criteria for immediate or early loading.
In this lecture, the current scientific loading criteria and
decision making process for the immediate or early loading will be presented
with clinical cases and reliable scientific data such as Resonance Frequency
Analysis, implant design that reinforced stability, Insertion torque value,
evaluation of bone density and patient’s parafunction.
