Backgrounds : Evaluation of the peri-implant bone trabecular microstructure changes in short implants with fractal analysis [2]
The quality of bone tissue at the site of implantation can be determined preoperatively with high accuracy, and changes in the trabecular structure, which is vital for the primary and secondary stability of the implant, can be observed during the follow-up after implantation.
Previous studies have evaluated fractal analysis of peri-implant bone before and after loading. However, no study has examined fractal analysis of the surrounding bone tissue of short implants or the changes in fractal analysis values of peri-implant bones according to jaws and restorative properties.
The present study aimed to evaluate the microstructural changes in the peri-implant bone in patients with short implants in terms of the implant survival status by using fractal analysis measurements. If the fractal analysis measures trabecular bone microstructural changes successfully, then the fractal dimensional changes of the peri-implant bones of the implants that failed will be significantly different.
