Micro-computerised Tomography Optimisation for the Measurement of Bone Mineral Density around Titanium Dental Implants

Titanium dental implants (screws) are commonly used to replace missing teeth by forming a biological union with bone (“osseointegration”). Micro-computerised tomography (µCT) may be useful for measuring bone mineral density around dental implants. Major issues arise bec...
