Filter by:The aims of the study was to correlate the extent of the dimensional alveolar bone changes after tooth extraction and contextual guided bone regeneration with serum vit D levels in 14 patients. Moreover, at 4 months, a small bone sample was collected in order to correlate histological and immunohistochemical parameters of bone with vit D serum levels.
An interventional prospective randomized clinical trial (RCT) was conducted in parallel groups. The sample size consisted of 30 patients who were randomly assigned to two groups based on the type of surgical intervention. The first group received implants with a sloped edge platform (Dentsply Sirona CIS, ASTRA TECH Implant System, registered in Russia on 21/12/2019, No. РЗН 2015/3214). The second group received implants with bone grafting. The assessment in the postoperative period included evaluating the condition of the soft tissues, bone resorption, number of analgesics, duration of the operation, edema, keratinized mucosa width, implant stability quotient, pain severity, and quality of life.
The study team is inviting 13 healthy people to complete a study to explore how calcium affects hormones and bones after eating. Participants will be asked to complete two study visits within eight weeks. Before each visit, participants will be asked to not eat or drink (except water) for 9 hours. At each visit, participants will eat the same meal provided by the research team. Along with their meal, they will take a pill - in one session, this will be a calcium supplement, and in the other, a placebo (a pill with no calcium), but they won't know which one they are taking at which session. A phlebotomist will draw blood before the meal and pill, then again several times after eating. Blood draws will take place over three hours. During that time, participants will complete questionnaires about health, diet, and physical activity. Blood will be analyzed to check on various health indicators, like bone health markers and certain hormones, to see how they change after the meal. The difference in these health indicators between the calcium and placebo sessions will help the study team understand the impact of calcium on health after eating. This could help increase knowledge of the impact of calcium on hormones and bone health.
The aim of the study will be to evaluate maxillary anterior teeth replacement with immediate dental implant utilizing vestibular socket therapy versus ice cream cone technique both clinically and radiographically.
A Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) Study to collect clinical data on safety and performance of all TEKNIMED Bone Substitute range of products: CERAFORM, TRIHA+, NANOGEL, and all their private labels. TEKNIMED bone substitutes are legacy products, some marketed for more than 20 years. Their performance and safety have already been demonstrated by Post-Market Surveillance and previous clinical studies. The current Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up study aims to confirm these claims by collecting data in a "real-life" setting. The study is a retrospective and prospective global, single arm, non-controlled, multicentric, prospective observational study. Patients will be followed as per local standard medical care of the sites.
The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the horizontal bone gain when grafting a bone substitute with non fixed resorbable collagen membranes (control group), versus fixed resorbable collagen membranes (test group) in resorbed ridges requiring Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) to facilitate implant placement at 6 months.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of two-dimensional FEM models obtained from DXA images in the longitudinal assessment of periprosthetic bone, in subjects undergoing hip arthroplasty. Specifically, the study will focus on the joint analysis of changes in the parameters of bone mineral density (BMD) and Bone Strain Index (BSI) at the level of periprosthetic bone of the proximal femur in patients undergoing hip replacement surgery using DXA, evaluating the densitometric variation of these two parameters over time, starting from an immediately postoperative data and checking the change at 6 months to follow the patient through the postoperative course
split-mouth RCT, 25 months follow up. GBR protocol with LPRF as grafting material in the test group and autogenous bone with DBBM as grafting material in the control group.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety of placing TiO2 scaffolds in alveolar ridge and to evaluate if the scaffold material contributes to maintain the anatomy and the volume of the alveolar process after tooth extraction.
Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) is an invaluable and beneficial surgical technique adopted when there is the need to augment an alveolar atrophy. Strong clinical and histologic evidence exists on the effectiveness and predictability of GBR in bone augmentation of ridge deficiencies. On the other hand, it is well known that GBR remains a challenge as in the most extreme cases, it is considered a highly technique-sensitive surgical procedure. Whilst there are numerous reviews which report the average incidence of complications in GBR, there is still insufficient evidence and manuscripts reporting a direct correlation between a specific biomaterial (membrane or scaffold) and observed complications. Only one recent systematic review and meta-analysis focused on wound healing complications following GBR for ridge augmentation procedures. Authors explored the complication rate based on the membrane type and on the timing of the first sign of soft tissue complications following bone augmentation procedures. They reported a complication rate of 17% of the overall soft tissue complications, including membrane exposure, soft tissue dehiscence, and acute infection (abscess). This estimate is consistent with that reported (12%) in a more recent systematic appraisal of the evidence on all types of complications in GBR (3). However, when horizontal augmentation procedures were reviewed, a higher rate (21%) of complications was reported within the first 18 months of a GBR procedure. This estimate was inclusive of all possible biologic complications following GBR whilst the rate of membrane exposure was of 23%. Vertical bone augmentation represents one of the most challenging bone regenerative procedures in surgical dentistry. This is because of the inherent difficulties of the surgical procedure and the high risk of complications. The primary aim of this procedure is to recreate alveolar bone in a vertical direction (without the support of any pre-existing walls) and enable recreation of a more favourable anatomy for the restoration of the edentulous site. Evidence on a variety of treatment options has been produced over the last 15 years including distraction osteogenesis, onlay bone grafting, and vertical ridge augmentation (VRA). Systematic reviews evaluating the efficacy of different surgical procedures for VRA either in a staged or a simultaneous fashion, reported a range of vertical bone gain of 2-8 mm. This gain was gradually lost (1.27 to 2.0mm) between 1 to 7 years post-surgery and a wide range of complications (0- 45.5%) has been reported. The aim of this study is to assess and compare incidence of complications and percentage of vertical bone gain when using four different barrier membranes in combination with 50/50 autogenous and xenogenous bone material in VRA procedures. Secondary aims will be to evaluate and compare early and late soft tissue wound healing, gingival microvasculature and structure, patient reported outcomes and the prevalence of need for further bone augmentation and need for soft tissue grafting. Additionally, this study will also aim to assess and compare histomorphometry and histochemistry analyses of core biopsies obtained before implant placement between the four different barrier membranes.
