Filter by:Several recent systematic reviews have highlighted how the macrodesign of dental implants can influence stress distribution and biomechanical and biological behavior in implants immediately inserted in post-extraction sites. Finite element analyzes have confirmed the benefit of the inclination of the implant threads in reducing implant displacement in post-extraction sites, increasing primary stability, and decreasing stress in contact with the trabecular bone. Other comparative studies have shown that the design of the threads of the implant does not affect the distribution of stress in the surrounding bone. In view of the need to evaluate the influence of implant macrodesign in the case of implants inserted in post-extraction alveoli, this study will examine the clinical results of two different types of implants with different macrodesigns, with the aim of providing scientific evidence in this regard. The present study will investigate through a randomized controlled trial the effect of thread macrodesign of X-space implants on primary stability and osseointegration when inserted in post-extraction sites, as compared to cylindric 2P implants.
Total of 48 subjects were randomly assigned to treatment groups: UT Health Science Center at San Antonio Chi Mei Medical Center, Tainan, Taiwan Patients require a maxillary non-molar extraction site that is planned to be replaced by a dental implant and crown. This includes Straumann BL SLActive: Narrow (3.3mm) & Regular (4.1mm) Crossfit implants in all available lengths. Patients were randomly selected to receive either FDBA (test) or Autogenous bone + DBBM (control/standard) for contour augmentation.
To compare platform-switched implants to platform-matched implants for replacement of a single missing tooth and their effect on: 1) Interproximal alveolar crest level in relation to implant platform. 2) Buccal implant recession. 3) Presence or absence of black triangle apical to the contact point. 4) Implant Success. 5) Adequate buccal tissue thickness.
An important result of healing after tooth extraction is a reduction in dimensions of the remaining bone at that site. This reduction of bone volume precludes successful restoration of the space using a dental implant. Bone augmentation has shown promise in clinical reports to reduce this loss of bone volume, thus allowing implant placement and restoration. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of guided bone regeneration around dental implants placed in fresh extraction sockets.
