Summary: This study compared the primary and secondary stability of implants placed in regenerated bone and native bone, finding that implants in regenerated bone had significantly lower stability compared to those in native bone. However, implants in regenerated bone still showed adequate primary and secondary stability for prosthetic loading. Bone quality influences the primary but not secondary stability of implants.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the associations between cortical bone-to-implant contact, bone microstructure derived from cone-beam computed tomography, and the primary stability of the implant. The results showed that preoperative cone-beam CT measurements could predict implant insertion torque and primary stability values.

Summary: In this study, QUS and RFA methods were used to evaluate dental implant stability, and the results showed that QUS provided a better estimation compared to RFA. This study lays the groundwork for the future clinical development of a medical device aiming to assess dental implant stability in a patient-specific manner.

Summary: This study evaluates the ASIST technique for assessing the stability of dental implants. The results show that the ASIST technique can reliably measure the interfacial stiffness of dental implants, which is not significantly influenced by different abutment types. This method may provide an improved non-invasive way to measure the stability of dental implants.

Summary: The study uses an asymptotic curve fitting method to analyze bone anchorage and finds that implant surface topography has a significant impact on the initial stage of osseointegration but not on the relative anchorage change during bone remodeling. Threaded implants significantly reduce the time required to reach peak anchorage, while implants with micro-topographically complex surfaces require greater torque to be removed.

Summary: This study systematically evaluated the correlation between alveolar bone parameters (bone density and cortical bone thickness) and primary implant stability. The results demonstrated a significant association between alveolar bone condition and primary implant stability. Low bone density and thin cortical bone may result in low primary implant stability.

Summary: Immediately loaded implants showed the lowest stability right after loading, but gradually increased over time. Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA) is useful for examining stability changes and initial stability, but cannot determine absolute stability after integration. There is a close correlation between ISQ changes and actual micromotion, but not with the histomorphometrical data.

Summary: This study investigated the implant stability in relation to two different implant designs over the first 8 weeks after implantation. The results showed that the implant design did not significantly influence the implant stability. The tapered shaped double-threaded design demonstrated higher stability in D4 bone and showed positive bounce back of stability by the eighth week.

Summary: The study examines the initial stability of pedicle screws post orthopedic surgery and introduces a new diagnostic method called Laser Resonance Frequency Analysis (L-RFA). It expands on the previous research by analyzing the vibrational spectra of polyaxial screws for L-RFA diagnosis and proposes a machine learning-based analysis scheme. This new method accurately predicts the stability of polyaxial pedicle screws, offering a valuable tool for clinical implant stability diagnosis using L-RFA.

Summary: The study introduces a novel regenerative hip implant fabricated through a one-step process based on patient-specific design and load-bearing properties. The implant, made using a flexible, bone-inducing biomaterial and extrusion-assisted 3D printing, shows mechanical stability and degradation resistance. It can be fixed with metallic screws to host bone and withstand physiological loads, even after losing approximately 40% of its initial mass. Overall, the hip implant offers an innovative solution for hip dysplasia treatment with regenerative properties.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of aging on the changes in implant stability over time following implant placement. The results showed that the stability of implants in elderly patients is not related to age, but rather to the engagement of the implant with the bone.

Summary: This study aims to evaluate the relationship between resonance frequency analysis and fractal dimension to determine the preload stability of implants. The results showed that ISQ and R0 values were significantly higher in men than women, and lower jaw values were significantly higher than upper jaw values. Fractal analysis is a non-invasive method that can be used in clinical examination.

Summary: This study compared the outcomes of short dental implants versus vertical bone augmentation followed by regular dental implants in the deficient posterior mandible. The results showed comparable outcomes within the first 5 years. Patients should be informed about the risks and benefits of both options before surgery.

Summary: Based on existing economic evaluations, IODs have often been suggested as a cost-effective treatment alternative to CDs. However, comparability between different economic evaluation studies is limited due to the use of different outcome measures. Additionally, it is unclear whether the additional health benefits of IODs outweigh the higher costs, which largely depends on decision makers' valuation of oral health outcomes. Future research should focus on elucidating patient willingness to pay for IODs and the societal return on investing in IODs.

Summary: This study evaluated the 3-year esthetic outcome of flapless immediate implant placement and provisionalization (FIIPP), and found that it may increase the risk of buccal soft-tissue recession. By installing implants in a maximal palatal position and filling the gaps with bovine bone substitute, high patient satisfaction and good soft-tissue esthetics were achieved after three years. Factors such as implant location, gap size, and emergence profiles were associated with the esthetic outcome.
