Osseotite Certain Prevail for the Preservation of Crestal Bone

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

A potential complicating factor affecting implants is crestal bone loss. The causes of crestal bone loss are attributed to several factors. Among those hypothesized, proof for one or another cause remains obscure. Clinical documentation suggests that implant design may be a key factor. While the evidence is inconclusive, various authors suggest that it is a result of a combination of effects including (1) limited drilling procedure and restricted second-stage surgery 2, (2) rough implant surface in crestal bone 3, (3) microthread design for implant stiffness 4, (4) loading along a conus versus a flat interface 5, and (5) the absence of a significant microgap 6.

The practice of platform switching (e.g. placing a 4 mm diameter abutment on a 5 mm implant seating surface physically moves the inflammatory cell infiltrate zone away from the crestal bone). The growing body of anecdotal platform switch evidence supports this biological width hypothesis. Here the biological width refers to the height of the dento-gingival attachment apparatus around a normal tooth and is defined as the distance necessary for a healthy existence of bone and soft tissue from the most apical extent of a dental restoration.

To formally test this hypothesis the current study has been designed. The Prevail implant has been made with an integrated medialized seating surface that establishes a platform switching function. This implant moves the implant/abutment interface away from the crestal bone and may therefore reduce the amount of bone loss observed in the standard (non-medialized) Osseotite implant design. The objective of this study is to evaluate crestal bone levels adjacent to the implant reference point from the time of implant placement to a period of two years after loading.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
