The study investigates the impact of osseodensification drills on bone density changes surrounding dental implants. Osseodensification, a novel technique, is hypothesized to enhance primary stability of implants by densifying bone rather than removing it during osteotomy. Participants undergo pre-operative and post-operative DentaScan CT analyses to measure bone density in Hounsfield units at apical, mesial, and distal positions around the implant sites. This intervention-based research aims to quantify the benefits of osseodensification in improving bone quality and implant success. Data from 32 sites, analyzed via the Radiant DICOM software, undergo statistical examination using SPSS to ascertain significant differences in bone density pre- and post-surgery. The outcome could redefine surgical approaches in implantology, emphasizing osseodensification's role in achieving superior bone-implant integration.
