C 22. Osseodensification is a Novel Implant Preparation Technique that Facilitates Ridge Expansion by Compaction Autografting

Lipton, Neiva, Trahan, et al. “Osseodensification is a Novel Implant Preparation Technique that Facilitates Ridge Expansion by Compaction Autografting”. Scientific Poster Presentation at the AAP 101st Annual Meeting,November 2015

Osseodensification is a novel, biomechanical, non-excavation osteotomy preparation method. Unlike traditional drilling, osseodensification utilizes proprietary high-speed densifying burs to compact and autograft bone in its plastic deformation phase. The result is an expanded osteotomy with preserved and condensed bone tissue that maintains alveolar ridge integrity and allows for implant placement with enhanced stability.

Osseodensification utilizing the Densah™ Bur technology produces stronger osteotomy for any implant. It preserves the bone to enhance the host. This allows for clinical versatility, which may facilitate enhanced implant stability and efficient expansion of any ridge in either jaw.

This article describes the combined use of the immediate dentoalveolar restoration (IDR) technique and an osseodensification implant site preparation method to improve immediate implant primary stability in periodontally compromised extraction sites. Positioning of soft and hard tissues was evaluated in two clinical cases in which the IDR technique and the osseodensification implant site preparation method were used to replace teeth at sites with severe alveolar bone loss. The results were analyzed by clinical assessment, photography, radiography, and computed tomography scans. Based on this preliminary study, the use of osseodensification can enhance the results achieved using the IDR technique due to improved primary implant stability, as measured by higher insertion torque.

Osseodensification Review Papers

$Dental implants were a viable long-term treatment option in the 2 cats described in this article. The best approach seems to be immediate implant placement at the time of extraction to maintain the surrounding osseous structures and prevent collapse of the labial buccal plate that may result when a delayed placement approach is undertaken. With careful treatment planning and informed owner consent, implants placed into the canine area to replace a fractured or badly damaged tooth can restore the feline to normal function. Thus far, the authors have placed 30 implants in 15 feline patients (14 of which have been restored), monitoring these cases up to a three year period and no integration failures have been observed to date. Long-term results have shown implants and crown restorations can be maintained without adverse periodontal sequela or crown fracture. Continued follow-up of these cases is ongoing.$
