Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to show that the currently accepted methods for the determination of implant stability are unpredictable. It describes those techniques that are currently utilized for the assessment of implant success and discusses the problems they present. The paper will propose the Periotest method as a reliable and reproducible alternative to the methods currently available to the clinician for determining implant stability.
