Randomized Trial of Five Implant Osteotomy Protocols on Stability and Anxiety

This clinical trial is studying different methods of preparing bone for dental implants. When a tooth is missing, a small titanium screw called a dental implant can be placed in the jaw to replace it. The stability of the implant during the first weeks after surgery is very important for long-term success. In this study, 100 patients each received a single dental implant. They were randomly assigned to one of five surgical methods: drilling at 50, 300, or 800 revolutions per minute (rpm), bone densification using special burs, or bone condensation using condenser drills. The goal was to compare how these techniques affect implant stability, measured by insertion torque and resonance frequency analysis, as well as the patient's anxiety before and after surgery. This research aims to find which technique provides the best balance between bone healing and patient comfort. All participants were healthy adults, and the study was approved by the institutional ethics committee.
