Measuring Implant Stability

Dr. Tupac published an article in the California Dental Association Journal, December, 2003, titled "When Is An Implant Ready For A Tooth?" which described the manner in which implants are tested for their readiness to support teeth.

We uncovered a Nobel Replace Select implant, submerged for four months in grafted (Bio-Oss) bone, and its OsstellISQ was 74, making it eligible for permanent restoration.  Having used the Osstell device for over eight years, we find it a consistent, reliable and objective device to measure implant stability.
