Modified drilling technique in enhancing primary stability in low density bone-An

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: The primary stability of the implant plays a pivotal role in its success of the implant. This depends largely on the bone quality, drilling protocol, and shape of the fixture. In low-density bone (D3, D4 bone), achieving primary implant stability is extremely challenging. The aim of this study was to compare and evaluate the primary stability of the implants with the proposed drilling technique, the standard drilling protocol, and the osseodensification technique (OT) in low-density bone through the ex-vivo study. Material and Method: A total of 60 dental implants, with 20 dental implants in standard drilling protocol, OT, and proposed drilling technique, were placed on a fresh, humid bovine bone. The insertion torque value and implant stability quotient value were measured to evaluate the primary stability of the implant. Results: The insertion torque value in the standard drilling technique was in the range of 20-30 N cm in 80% of the dental implants placed, whereas it was greater than 40 N cm in 65% of implants with the OT and 90% with the proposed drilling technique. The mean implant stability quotient in the standard drilling protocol was 65.51 ± 2.65, the OT was 68.06 ± 3.14, and the proposed drilling technique was 68.31 ± 3.22. This difference in the insertion torque value ( Conclusion: The study found proposed drilling protocol produced results in the range similar to the OT. The proposed drilling technique has a possible clinical application in low-density bone.
