| Abstract | ||
| Background: Osseodensification is a means of biomechanical site preparation. It results in low plastic deformation which preserves the bone, enhances healing and shortens the healing period Objective: Evaluate osseodensification effect for implant site preparation in mandibular narrow ridges using Densah burs in a non-cutting anti-clockwise direction on increasing bone density and ridge width. Material and Methods: This trial is a clinical trial in which fourteen subjects (30-44 years) with missing mandibular teeth had their implant sites prepared using Densah Bur in an anti-clockwise non-cutting direction. Bone width and density were gauged by using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan before, immediately postoperative and after 4 months. ANOVA with repeated measures and Paired t-tests were used for statistics. Results: Immediate postoperative bone width increased by 45.16%, 19.72%, 8.51% and 22.27% in the cervical, middle, apical parts and in average, respectively (P | ||
