Impact of implant insertion torque on success of implant-an evidence based review
Journal Title: IP International Journal of Periodontology and Implantology - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Introduction Insertion torque imposes a direct effect on the stability of implants Some studies suggest that high torque has resulted in bone necrosis while some suggest no impact on bone with high torque the literature regarding insertion torque relationship to changes in bone is sparsePurpose The rationale of this article is to critically evaluate the available scientific data on influence of insertion torque on implant successMaterials and Methods A Medline and manual search was done to recognize studies that are concerned with insertion torque related implant success rates from 1970 to 2017 The articles taken in this study includes data on insertion torque such as primary stability bone quality and quantity implant design and changes in bone related to high or low torqueResults The 28 included studies contains one randomized controlled trial 12 prospective studies and 10 retrospective studiesConclusion Insertion torque leads to primary stability of implants which ultimately contributes to implant successKeywords Insertion torque Primary stability Bone density Implant success
