Penguin Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA)

Immediate Restoration

The bredent Penguin II is a handheld device that measures dental implant stability via Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA). Designed as a complementary tool to the traditional ratchet, it offers a non-invasive method to assess whether an implant is stable enough for immediate restoration.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      What is Resonance Frequency Analysis?

      Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA) is a non-invasive method used to measure dental implant stability. It works by sending small mechanical vibrations through a component called a MulTipeg attached to the implant. The device then measures the vibration’s resonance frequency, which is converted into an Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) value on a scale from 1 to 100. The higher the ISQ value, the greater the implant stability. This helps clinicians decide the optimal timing for loading the implant.

      The ISQ value of 1-99 is a measurement of the stability of the implant. The higher the value, the more stable the implant. If the value is 70 ISQ or above, immediate restoration is possible. In the event of values between 55 and 70, we recommend interlocked immediate restoration. If the value is below 55 ISQ, the implant must undergo submerged healing. The bredent Penguin II measures the ISQ value to an accuracy of +/- 1 ISQ unit.

      Here’s how to use the bredent Penguin RFA:

      • First, screw the MulTipeg into the implant or abutment using the driver. 
      • The MulTipeg will vibrate as a result of short magnetic impulses from the tip of the bredent Penguin, which react with the magnets in the inside of the measuring pin. 
      • The Penguin records the magnetic alternating field of the vibrating magnets and uses this to calculate the resonance frequency and resulting ISQ value.

      Yes. The Penguin and its related accessories are all available to order online through the bredent UK website.
