However, the clinical applicability of those methods is still limited. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a new innovative, noninvasive, minimum-contact method for the stability assessment of dental implants. STUDY DESIGN: Natural frequency is a physical property of a structure, which is strongly related to its boundary conditions. In this study, a modal testing technique was carried out to measure the natural frequency of dental implants. The implants were fixed by a metal clamp stand and were excited to vibrate by an impulse hammer. A noncontact piezoelectric microphone then acoustically acquired the vibration responses of the implants. Natural frequencies of the tested implants were recorded under various clamping forces and clamping levels. RESULTS: Natural frequencies of the tested implants were concentrated from 8 to 19 kHz under different boundary conditions. On the other hand, the natural frequency values decreased when boundary levels and boundary force were reduced. Linear relationships (P <.005) were found between response frequencies and the degree of implant stability. CONCLUSIONS: Our results show that the boundary status of an implant can be monitored by detecting its natural frequency. A noncontact transducer used in this study can also serve as a useful tool for future clinical investigations. ------>tmu_sno=None ------>sno=1959 ------>authors2=None ------>authors3=None ------>authors4=None ------>authors5=None ------>authors6=None ------>authors6_c=None ------>authors=Fan K. -H., Ho, K. -N., Lee S. -Y., Huang H. -M., Chang W.-J. ------>delete_flag=0 ------>SCI_JNo=None ------>authors2_c=None ------>publish_area=None ------>updateTitle=Assessing the implant/bone interface by using natural frequency analysis. ------>language=2 ------>check_flag= ------>submit_date= ------>country=None ------>no= ------>patent_SDate=None ------>update_bywho= ------>publish_year=1999 ------>submit_flag= ------>publish_month=None |
