Bone density in the recipient implant site seems to be an important factor for long term success of endosseous implants. Preoperative evaluation of bone density is very helpful to assist the clinician with the treatment planning of implant therapy. Accurate information on bone density will help the surgeon identify suitable implant sites, thereby improving the success rate of the procedure. Purpose; The aim of this study was to evaluate a correlation between bone density measured preoperatively with computerized tomography and histologically measured bone density by bone biopsy. Patients and methods; Twenty seven patients were selected. All the patients were in good health, with no systemic disorder and additional bone graft. Preoperatively the patients underwent CT scanning to evaluate Houmsfield Unit(HU). Each patients wore a surgical template for implant placement. During surgery 2mm in diameter and 6mm in length specimens were taken. Histomorphometric analysis was performed using digitalized image analysis software Axiovision 4.3. Also, the Resonance frequency analysis(RFA) and insertion torque values were recorded. Results; The highest histomorphometric values was found in the posterior mandible $32.3{\pm}3.8$, followed by $29.9{\pm}2.6$ for the posterior maxilla, $29.4{\pm}2.6$ for the anterior maxilla, $28.6{\pm}2.3$ for the anterior mandible(p=0.214). The hounsfield unit was $989.2{\pm}258.1$ in the posterior mandible, $845.0{\pm}241.5$ in the anterior maxilla, $744.5{\pm}92.6$ in the anterior mandible, $697.3{\pm}136.9$ in the posterior maxilla(p=0.045). This results may suggest that there are strong correlation between the histomorphometric values and hounsfield unit(r=0.760, p<0.05). The RF measurements were $81.9{\pm}2.4$ ISQ in the posterior mandible, $79.0{\pm}1.4$ ISQ in the anterior mandible, $78.3{\pm}4.6$ ISQ in the posterior maxilla, $76.5{\pm}5.0$ ISQ in the anterior maxilla(p=0.048). The insertion torque values was $43.2{\pm}4.2\;Ncm$ in the posterior mandible, $42.0{\pm}0.0\;Ncm$ in the anterior mandible, $41.3{\pm}4.1\;Ncm$ in the posterior maxilla, $40.8{\pm}3.8\;Ncm$ in the anterior maxilla(p=0.612). This results may suggest that there are statistical significance between the hounsfield unit and the insertion torque values(r=0.494, p<0.05), the histomorphometric values and the insertion torque values(r=0.689, p<0.05). But there was no correlation between histomorphometric values and ISQ. There was no statistical significance in age and gender effect on parameters. Conclusions; There was significant correlations between bone density and implant stability parameters. The bone density measurements using preoperative CT may help clinicians to predict primary stability before implant insertion, which is associated with implant survival rates.

연구 목적: 이 연구의 목적은 임플란트의 직경, 길이 및 디자인의 변화가 임플란트 안정성 지수에 미치는 영향을 비교하는 것이다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 골질차이에 의한 변수를 제거하기 위해 상악골 평균밀도와 유사한 균일한(0.48g /$cm^3$) 밀도를 가진 Polyuretane foam blocks (Sawbones$^{(R)}$, Pacific Research Laboratories Inc, Vashon, Washington)을 이용, 임플란트(Implantium$^{(R)}$, Dentium, Seoul, Korea)를 다양한 직경(${\phi}3.8$, ${\phi}4.3$ 및 ${\phi}4.8$)과 길이(8, 10 및 12 mm)로 식립하여 그 변화가 임플란트 안정성 지수(Implant Stability Quotient, ISQ)에 미치는 영향을 비교하였다. 또 같은 직경과 길이(${\phi}4.3{\times}10mm$)에서 submerged와 non-submerged (SimplelineII$^{(R)}$, Dentium, Seoul, Korea) 디자인이 ISQ 에 미치는 영향을 비교하였다. 식립 회전력의 영향을 배제하기 위해 동일한 35 N의 Torque로 각 실험군당 10개씩 총 60개의 임플란트를 식립하였다. Osstell$^{TM}$ mentor(Integration Diagnostic AB, Sweden)를 이용하여 공진주파수를 측정한 후 ISQ 값으로 기록하였고, 그 결과를 one-way ANOVA와 Tukey HSD test로 분석하였다(${\alpha}$=.05). 결과: 1. 임플란트 직경의 변화는 ISQ에 영향을 미치지 않았으나(P>.05), 임플란트 길이가 증가함에 따라 ISQ도 증가하였다(P<.001). 2. 임플란트 디자인의 변화는 ISQ와 유의한 상관관계를 보여 Submerged 디자인의 ISQ가 non-submerged 디자인보다 높게 나타났다(P<.05). 결론: 임플란트 안정성을 높이기 위해서는 가능한 길이가 긴 임플란트를 식립하는 것이 유리하며, 같은 길이의 임플란트에서 볼 때 Non-submerged 디자인보다 submerged 디자인이 더 높은 ISQ를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
