Evaluation of Trabecular Microarchitecture of the Alveolar Bone by Micro-computed Tomography and of Osseointegration of Dental Implants by Resonance Frequency Analysis

The aim of this study is to check whether the trabecular bone with its microarchitecture plays a predictive role in osseointegration of dental implants precisely in its biological stability phase or its secondary stability phase.

If this correlation is established, a larger study must be conducted to identify a profile of patients at risk for failure of osseointegration of the dental implant.

Inclusion criteria

• affiliated patient or entitled to a social security scheme
• requiring the installation of one or more dental implants
• partial or total loss teeth, the height and width od the alveolar bone does not require bone grafting or guides regeneration

Exclusion criteria

• patient who underwent pre-implant surgery (bone grafting, elevation of the maxillary sinus, guided regeneration)
• patient under corticosteroid therapy in the long term
• patient who benefited from the head and neck radiotherapy
• patient under bisphosphonates intravenously treatment
• all cases immediate implantation and extraction of all implant put into immediate expenses
