PURPOSE: The aims of the study are to introduce a new parameter to measure primary stability and to evaluate the possible correlations between this parameter and bone density, initial bone-to-implant contact (IBIC), Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA), and peak insertion torque (IT). MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study was performed on three different types of fresh humid bovine bone: type I, type II, and type III. A total of 90 XiVE implants (30 per bone type) were used; implant insertion was performed with a calibrated maximum torque of 70 Ncm at predetermined 30 rpm. The IT data were recorded and exported as a curve; using a trapezoidal integration technique, the area underlying the curve was calculated: this area represents the variable torque work (VTW). Furthermore, peak IT and RFA were recorded; finally IBIC was calculated from histological specimens. RESULTS: Spearman correlation analysis of the entire sample reveals that VTW presents a significant (p < .01) positive correlation with bone density; a significant (p < .05) positive correlation with IBIC, and a significant (p < .01) positive correlation with all the other primary stability parameters. Spearman correlation analysis of the three different groups show that VTW presents a significant positive correlation with IT in all three types of bone; on the other hand, VTW shows a negative not significant correlation with RFA in bone I, a positive significant correlation in bone II, and a positive not significant correlation in bone III. Furthermore, VTW shows a negative significant correlation with IBIC in bone I and a positive significant correlation in bone II and III.

Abstract

PURPOSE: The aims of the study are to introduce a new parameter to measure primary stability and to evaluate the possible correlations between this parameter and bone density, initial bone-to-implant contact (IBIC), Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA), and peak insertion torque (IT). MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study was performed on three different types of fresh humid bovine bone: type I, type II, and type III. A total of 90 XiVE implants (30 per bone type) were used; implant insertion was performed with a calibrated maximum torque of 70 Ncm at predetermined 30 rpm. The IT data were recorded and exported as a curve; using a trapezoidal integration technique, the area underlying the curve was calculated: this area represents the variable torque work (VTW). Furthermore, peak IT and RFA were recorded; finally IBIC was calculated from histological specimens. RESULTS: Spearman correlation analysis of the entire sample reveals that VTW presents a significant (p < .01) positive correlation with bone density; a significant (p < .05) positive correlation with IBIC, and a significant (p < .01) positive correlation with all the other primary stability parameters. Spearman correlation analysis of the three different groups show that VTW presents a significant positive correlation with IT in all three types of bone; on the other hand, VTW shows a negative not significant correlation with RFA in bone I, a positive significant correlation in bone II, and a positive not significant correlation in bone III. Furthermore, VTW shows a negative significant correlation with IBIC in bone I and a positive significant correlation in bone II and III.
