View clinical trials related to Alveolar Bone Loss.
Filter by:The aim of this study is to evaluate the radiographic and the clinical outcomes of application of the alveolar ridge splitting (ARS) in combination with ATG, associated with immediate implant placement versus ARS in combination with autogenous bone graft, associated with immediate implant placement in patients with horizontal bony insufficiency of alveolar ridges.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in patients with atrophied anterior maxilla, bone augmentation techniques ( gold standard bone block and tent pole technique). The main question it aims to answer is : Does screw tent pole technique provides better bone gain than autogenous bone block in atrophied anterior maxilla? - primary objective to assess amount of bone gain - secondary objective assess bone quality Participants will be randomly divided into two groups study group ( tent pole technique) and control group ( bone block) - each group will be followed up monthly for soft tissue dehiscence and after 6 month to assess bone gain and bone quality and then implant placement.
Objective: The objective is to evaluate the dimensional changes of soft tissue and alveolar ridge after extraction of posterior elements with different clinical protocols of alveolar preservation.
The design is a single blinded, dual comparative study of ultrasound versus micro-CT/LASCA in one study group. Up to a total of 140 subjects registered will be recruited. Subjects who are treatment planned for extraction of a hopeless tooth and socket augmentation with bone graft and are planned for a dental implant surgery. The socket will be evaluated before the extraction and multi-time points during healing until an implant is placed with various evaluation tools, including ultrasound.
Atrophied jaw is a condition where there is insufficient bone quantity to place root form implants. Several treatment plans are available for treating atrophied jaws, including subperiosteal implants. Subperiosteal implants were introduced in the last century. Poor clinical results led those implants to be progressively abandoned. Recently, several Authors suggested a revival of subperiosteal implants as an alternative to regenerative procedures.
Utilization of collagen vs PRF membrane over the graft following sinus lift procedure and before suturing
This study is being performed to compare different methods of visualization during routine gum surgery. The gum surgery is standard of care. This study will compare the use of a small camera (videoscope) in conjunction with magnification glasses during surgery vs. surgery only using magnification glasses. Both methods are routinely used and are standard of care methods of visualization. The small camera (videoscope) is a device which allows us to see the area under high magnification and projects live video feed on a computer screen. The study is a split-mouth design pilot study. The patients are only receiving treatment that was previously diagnosed prior to entering the study. The treatment performed is standard treatment that fits in the routine standard of care. No interventional treatment is being performed. The only difference is the method of visualization/observation by the practitioner used during the surgical procedure. One side of the mouth will be treated with just loupes while the other side of the mouth will be treated with loupes and the videoscope.
To compare the diagnostic accuracy of extra-oral x-rays with intra-oral x-rays, in contrast to clinically observed measurements, for the detection of calculus and bone loss of either the suprabony or infrabony types in patients undergoing periodontal surgery.
This prospective cohort study aims to investigate the relationship between mandibular canal trajectory and the duration of postoperative paresthesia in patients undergoing inferior alveolar nerve lateralization. The study will assess mandibular canal trajectory using anatomic factors and evaluate nerve sensory function using subjective and objective tests. Implant success criteria will also be assessed. The study will be conducted on patients who underwent IANL due to mandibular atrophy and were unable to receive standard or short implant placement. Data will be collected at regular follow-up visits up to 1-year post-surgery.
The aim of the research is to evaluate the clinical outcome of short dental implants, characterized by a new macro-structural design and inserted in the upper or lower jaw in patients with reduced bone volume. The clinical outcomes will be compared for different surface treatments of implant neck and those of prosthetic components.
