Osseointegration is considered a prerequisite for the long-term success of dental implants, and many researchers have considered the stability of the implant when placed in the bone. Many techniques include undersized drilling, densifying burs, magnetic mallets, and expanders. These methods have led to higher initial insertion torque values. The present study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of expanders, densifying burs, and magnetic mallet methods for preparing the implant site in low-density bone and compare them in terms of achieving good initial implant stability.
