Implant Site Preparation With Piezosurgery vs Conventional Drills in Terms of Operation Time, Implant Stability and Bone Density

Evaluation of Implant Site Preparation With Piezosurgery vs Conventional Drills in Terms of Operation Time, Implant Stability and Bone Density. (Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial- Split Mouth Design)

The preparation of the implant site has a major influence on the success rate and long-term survival of dental implants. Piezoelectric devices and special implant drilling inserts are now emerging to replace conventional drills.
