Enhancement of implant osseointegration by high-frequency low-magnitude loading.

<h4>Background</h4>Mechanical loading is known to play an important role in bone remodelling. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of high- and low-frequency axial loading, applied directly to the implant, on peri-implant bone healing and implant osseointegration.<h4>Methodology...
