At A+ Dental & Implant Center, we use Osstell technology to analyze the stability of your dental implant. Using he universal ISQ (Implant Stability Quotient) scale, Osstell can measure the stability of your implants in a completely non-invasive way. This allows Dr. Christy Chen and associates to prevent your implant from failing and keep your smile healthy.

Precision Implant Stability Assessment
At our dental practice, we are committed to offering the most advanced tools and techniques to ensure the success and longevity of your dental treatments. One such innovation is Osstell technology, a valuable system that allows us to measure the stability of dental implants and monitor the progress of healing after placement. Osstell is an important part of our approach to safe, accurate and predictable implant dentistry.
What Is Osstell Technology?
Osstell uses a noninvasive method known as Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA) to assess the stability of dental implants. This measurement is known as the Implant Stability Quotient, or ISQ. The ISQ scale ranges from 1 to 100, and the values help our dentists determine how stable your implant is and how well it is integrating with the surrounding bone. Osstell readings can be taken immediately after implant placement and repeated during follow-up visits to track healing progress.
Unlike traditional methods that rely on visual inspection or subjective pressure testing, Osstell provides an objective, quantifiable result. This allows your dental team to make more informed decisions about when to proceed with the next step in your treatment plan, such as placing a restoration or adjusting the loading of the implant.
How Osstell Enhances Your Implant Treatment
Dental implants must integrate with the jawbone in a process called osseointegration. This step is critical for ensuring that the implant is strong enough to support a crown, bridge or denture. If an implant is restored too early, before the bone has properly bonded, it can lead to implant failure. Osstell helps reduce this risk by identifying the optimal time to restore the implant based on the unique healing process of each patient.
Using Osstell technology allows us to tailor your treatment timeline and improve your overall implant experience. Patients benefit from increased accuracy, greater confidence in their outcome and a reduced risk of complications. It also provides peace of mind, knowing that every stage of the process is guided by data and clinical insight.

Your comfort, safety and treatment success are our top priorities. Osstell technology is one of the ways we ensure that dental implants are placed and restored at the ideal time.
