Abstract:

 Objective: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of vitamin D levels on the stability of dental implants using the AnyCheck® device.  Methods: Fifty-six units of implants were placed for 21 participants (10 male, 11 female). A new damping capacity method device (Anycheck) was used to test the stability of the implants in two periods, first at the time of implant insertion (initial stability) and second after 3-4 months from implant insertion (secondary stability). The implant stability index was set based on the implant stability quotient value (from 0 to 100. After that, all the participants were sent for a Vit D level test. As a result of this test, the participants were divided into two groups: those with Vit D >30 (Normal) and those with Vit D <30 (Deficient). A statistical analysis was performed by using (paired t-test and independent t-test) at a significant level of (p < 0.05).  Results: The initial stability tests showed a non-significant increase in the ISQ mean value for the normal vitamin D group compared to the deficient vitamin D group (73.133, 72.288). The secondary stability tests showed a significant decrease in the ISQ mean value for the normal vitamin D group compared to the vitamin D deficient group (69.3, 72.28).  Conclusions: Within the limitations of this study, the vitamin D level does not significantly improve dental implants' initial and secondary stability. The efficacy of vitamin D on implant osseointegration remains controversial and requires further investigation.
