interview | 03 0 0000 implants Canyoualsomeasureosseointegration?Howdoes it work? What values should the user go for? Yes, it can be measured by taking at least two measurements with some time in between, and monitor the change in ISQ. Research has showed that70ISQorabovecorrespondstoastableimplant. It is recommended to measure at two occasions, at installation and before loading, to see the trend in the ISQ-value. Do you plan to be present at the EAO Congress 2016? Yes,weareattheEAOmeetinginParis,andyouare most welcome to visit us at booth no. 53. Excellent, can you already give us a preview on what you will present at the EAO? We will exhibit the Penguin RFA instrument, and demonstrate how it works. We use demo implants withadjustablestability,sothereisanopportunityto testithands-on.Wewillalsohaveclinicalexpertisein the booth on at least one occasion during the exhibi- tion. The people in the booth have extensive experi- enceinthefieldofimplantdiagnosticsandespecially ISQ, so I hope many take the opportunity to be there and meet with us. What can we expect from you in the future? We will continue to build our distributor network globally to make Penguin RFA available everywhere intheworld.Wewillalsocontinueourresearchinim- plant diagnostics and associated areas. Hopefully, it will lead to other valuable tools that will help clini- cians and patients to make an excellent treatment even better. Anders, thank you very much for the interview._ Fig. 2: PenguinRFA measures the resonance frequency of the reusable MulTipeg™ with a non-contact- ing technique. The frequency is displayed as an ISQ-value (implant stability quotient) from 1–99. The ISQ-value correlates strongly to the micro mobility of the implants. Fig. 3: The PenguinRFA system consists of a hand-held instrument and a reusable, tissue-friendly and autoclavable MulTipeg™. A charger is delivered together with the in- strument as well as a stainless steel driver for attaching the MulTipeg™ to the implant. contact Integration Diagnostics Sweden AB Nedergårdsgatan 5 416 54 Göteborg, Sweden Tel.: +46 709741269 info@penguinRFA.com www.penguinrfa.com © rommma/Shutterstock.com Fig. 2 Fig. 3 00000 41654 Göteborg, Sweden Tel.: +46709741269
