Body<br />
objectives: Today, the capability of clinicians to evaluate the rate and the pattern of periimplant<br />
bone changes needs to be improved <strong>as</strong> peri-implant bone changes dramatically affect<br />
the success rate of implants. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the peri-implant<br />
bone changes using digital radiography.<br />
Method and Materials:The present study is an analytic- descriptive study which w<strong>as</strong> conducted<br />
on the 25 patients who referred to the implant department of Isfahan school of Dentistry.<br />
Some patient randomly selected using simple random sampling. During the study, peri-implant<br />
bone density and alveolar crest resorption were studied by digital radiography for each patient<br />
in three periods: soon after implant insertion, two months and four months after implant<br />
placement. In all of these three periods, parallel radiographs and XCP film holder were used.<br />
At the end of these periods, three images, taken from each patient compared with each other<br />
to evaluate the bone density changes. Data analyzed with SPSS statistical package and analyses<br />
variant test. (α=0.05)<br />
Results:Alveolar bone resorption showed a statistically meaningful difference in three periods<br />
(P value =0.033) but t<strong>here</strong> w<strong>as</strong> no significant difference between three periods regarding the<br />
density changes (P value=0.601).<br />
Conclusion:According to the results of the present study, digital radiography can be used <strong>as</strong> an<br />
accurate and sensitive devise to analyze changes in peri-implant bone which can help<br />
clinicians to evaluate the prognosis of prosthetic treatments.<br />
