Abstract

Objective: The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the capacity of surgical drills from Megagen and Nucleoss implant systems to collect autologous bone particles generated during osteotomy and to evaluate the effects of different drill diameters on this capacity.
Material and Methods: A total of 40 bovine bones were used in the study. The drill diameters used in the Megagen Implant system were 3.3 mm, 3.6 mm, 4.2 mm and 4.8 mm, while the drill diameters used in the Nucleoss Implant system were 3.0 mm, 3.5 mm, 4.1 mm and 4.8 mm. 40 osteotomies were created from each system for each diameter. After osteotomy, bone particles accumulated in the grooves of the burs were collected and stored in Eppendorf tubes. The data obtained were statistically evaluated with SPSS program.
Results: The amount of autologous bone obtained with the drills of the Nucleoss system was statistically significantly higher compared to the Megagen system. In both systems, an increase in the amount of bone collected was observed as the bur diameter increased. The highest bone collection amount was found in 4.8 mm burs.
Conclusion: The design and geometry of the bur directly affect the amount of autologous bone obtained during osteotomy. The Nucleoss bur system may provide a clinical advantage in osseointegration with its higher bone particle collection capacity. However, further studies are required for clinical confirmation of the findings.

İKİ FARKLI DENTAL İMPLANT SİSTEMİNİN KEMİK TOPLAMA KAPASİTESİNİN KARŞILAŞTIRILMASI

Abstract

Amaç: Bu in vitro çalışmanın amacı, Megagen ve Nucleoss implant sistemlerine ait cerrahi frezlerin osteotomi sırasında oluşturduğu otolog kemik partiküllerini toplama kapasitelerini karşılaştırmak ve farklı frez çaplarının bu kapasite üzerindeki etkilerini değerlendirmektir.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmada toplam 40 adet sığır kemiği kullanılmıştır. Megagen İmplant sisteminde kullanılan frez çapları 3,3 mm, 3,6 mm, 4,2 mm ve 4,8 mm iken Nucleoss İmplant sisteminde kullanılan frez çapları 3,0 mm, 3,5 mm, 4,1 mm ve 4,8 mm şeklindedir, her çap için her sistemden 40 adet osteotomi oluşturulmuştur. Osteotomi sonrasında frezlerin oluklarında biriken kemik partikülleri toplanarak ependorf tüplerde saklanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler istatistiksel olarak SPSS programı ile değerlendirilmiştir.
Bulgular: Nucleoss sistemine ait frezlerle elde edilen otolog kemik miktarı, Megagen sistemine kıyasla istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde daha fazladır. Her iki sistemde de frez çapı arttıkça toplanan kemik miktarında artış gözlemlenmiştir. En yüksek kemik toplama miktarı 4,8 mm frezlerde saptanmıştır.
Sonuç: Frez tasarımı ve geometrisi, osteotomi sırasında elde edilen otolog kemik miktarını doğrudan etkilemektedir. Nucleoss frez sistemi, daha yüksek kemik partikülü toplama kapasitesi ile osseointegrasyonda klinik avantaj sağlayabilir. Ancak bulguların klinik doğrulanması için ileri çalışmalar gereklidir.
