Dental Implantology Chapter 1: Rationale for Dental Implants

Adequate understanding of bone density and various modifications in surgical techniques

1. Implant designs that are more biomechanically advantageous, and 2) Resonance frequency analysis (RFA) - a non-invasive diagnostic tool that objectively assesses and monitors the stability of the dental implant over time by measuring implant-to-bone contact.

RFA is a non-invasive diagnostic tool that objectively assesses and monitors the stability of the dental implant over time by measuring implant-to-bone contact (i.e., implant stability quotation or ISQ), making it more precise and predictable than subjective techniques.
