Performance Evaluation of FullCeram Implants in Single Tooth Gaps

Tooth Loss Clinical Trial

Official title: A Prospective Open Label Single Arm Study to Evaluate the Performance of Straumann Monotype FullCeram (Zirconium Dioxide) Implants in Single Tooth Gaps in the Maxilla and Mandible

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

• Straumann Monotype FullCeram implants serve as a suitable alternative for implant therapy especially in the aesthetic zone

• The survival rate of Straumann Ceramic implants should be at least 85% (max 6 implant losses out of 40 patients) after the first year

Clinical Trial Description

This is a prospective, open label, single arm, multicenter study. The total study duration for each patient was prolonged to 10 years follow-up. It is acceptable to have the visit performed up to 6 month after the aspired date.

The primary study parameter will be analyzed as soon as every patient passed visit 6 (annual follow-up visit, 12 month +/- 4 weeks).

Implants will be placed transmucosally and will be protected by a thermoplastic splint for healing. A provisional prosthesis will be placed (out of occlusion) 12-14 weeks post implant placement. The final crown will be done between study week 24 and 28. Implant survival, implant success, bone loss, periodontal parameters and adverse events will be assessed in the follow-up visits.

In total 10 visits are scheduled in this study. The investigational device: Straumann FullCeram Implant is a monotype ZrO2 implant with a diameter of 4.1 mm, available in lengths of 8, 10, 12 and 14 mm and abutment heights of 4.0 or 5.5 mm. This is a CE marked product.

Three centres in Germany are participating. The study and any amendments will be performed as far as possible according to ISO 14155 (Second Edition, 2011-02-01) and conform to the Declaration of Helsinki (last revised Seoul 2008) and local legal and regulatory requirements. ;
