The increased demand for implants in the dental surgeon’s clinical routine, methods and techniques have been created that involve non-invasive quantitative analysis, do not damage the bone-implant interface and objectively measure implant stability, such as resonance frequency analysis. The aim of this case report is to present a clinical case of a patient who came to the Dental School Clinic with a diagnosis of oblique root fracture with an indication for root extraction and immediate implant placement. The Osstell was used as another technique, in addition to the torque wrench, to measure the primary stability of the implant, which showed high stability, proving the importance of using the Osstell in the clinic.
