The assessment of implant stability was again a hybrid method involving combination of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) assessment with perfusion-based evaluation of alveolar bone density and ridge width. This study was conducted on 42 patients who had a total of 80 implants that were put in boundary places of the bone to determine its density. There was high correlation on the correlation between bone density and implant stability where r=0.65- Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ); r=0.58 - Insertion Torque Value (ITV) (p<0.001). Coronal ridge width showed moderate correlation with the implant stability (r=0.47), but bone density was considered the strongest indicator of the implant stability (p<0.01). These results indicate the usefulness of CBCT in planning prior to the operation, so that it would enable clinicians to predict stability of the area implants and therefore enhance the treatment process by analyzing the bone density as well as obtaining the succinct results.
