The damping behavior of 392 IMZ implants with a diameter of 4 mm was examined by performing Periotest measurements during regular implant follow-up. The results were correlated with radiographically assessed peri-implant bone reduction. To guarantee statistical independence, only one randomly chosen implant per patient was considered in the examination. In 167 implants, the difference between the mean mandibular and maxillary Periotest values proved to be statistically significant. Age, sex, and radiographic length of the endosseous part of the abutment had no influence on the Periotest values. Assessment of the Periotest values can thus be considered an additional parameter for objective determination of IMZ implant success. However, exclusive use of the Periotest method without additional radiographic examinations does not seem to be justified.
在常规种植体随访期间，通过进行牙周测试测量，对392颗直径为4毫米的IMZ种植体的阻尼行为进行了检查。将结果与影像学评估的种植体周围骨吸收情况相关联。为确保统计独立性，检查中每位患者仅考虑随机选择的一枚种植体。在167颗种植体中，下颌和上颌牙周测试平均值之间的差异被证明具有统计学意义。年龄、性别以及基台骨内部分的影像学长度对牙周测试值均无影响。因此，牙周测试值的评估可被视为客观判定IMZ种植体成功的一个附加参数。然而，仅使用牙周测试方法而不进行额外的影像学检查似乎并不合理。
