Effects of Low-Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound on Implant Osseointegration in Ovariectomized Rats

Conclusions—
Low-intensity pulsed US might enhance new bone formation, especially at an early stage, and improve osseointegration in osteoporotic bone as an auxiliary method. However, further studies are needed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying its action.
