Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of two different insertion speeds at eight different insertion torque values ranging from 25 to 60 during implantation in a dense polyurethane (PU) D1 bone model on the placement condition and removal torque of dental implants. In this study, 50 pcf single-layer PU plates were used. In the study, a total of 320 implant sockets were divided into two groups, Group 1 (30 rpm) and Group 2 (50 rpm), in terms of insertion speed. Group 1 and Group 2 were divided into eight subgroups with 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55 and 60 torques. There were 20 implant sockets in each subgroup. During the implantations, the implant placement condition and removal torque values were assessed. There was a statistically significant difference between the 30 and 50 rpm groups in terms of overall implant placement condition (p < 0.01). It was found that the removal torque values at 50 rpm were statistically significantly higher than those at 30 rpm (p < 0.01). This study showed that in dense D1 bone, the minimum parameters at which all implants could be placed at the bone level were 50 torque at 30 rpm and 40 torque at 50 rpm.

Keywords: dental implant; implant placement condition; insertion torque; polyurethane foam; polyurethane model; polyurethane plate; removal torque.
