Filter by:This study consists in a double-blinded randomized controlled trial which objective is to assess the effect of the implant-abutment connection type -external hexagon, internal hexagon and conical connection- in the periimplant marginal bone loss in vertical side and the bacterial leakage 12 months after prosthesis placement.
The objective of the research project will be to compare immediate and early unitary implants for the rehabilitation of missing teeth in the upper aesthetic region. A randomized controlled trial will be conducted in parallel with 120 individuals (60 per group) who are above 18 years of age, periodontally healthy, and who need to perform only one unit implant in the upper aesthetic region between the second premolars. In the immediate implant group, the tooth will be extracted in a minimally traumatic manner and the implant will be installed immediately after the fresh alveolus. Bovine bone replacement will be inserted into the gap between implant and vestibular wall of the alveolus, and an immediate temporary will be installed immediately. The provisional will be maintained for 3 months when the definitive crown will be made. In the early implant group, the tooth will be extracted, and after 2 months the implant will be installed with the use of bovine bone substitute to restore the buccal bone contour. The implant will be submerged, and 3 months of osseointegration will be performed reopening and final crown making. In both groups, the individuals will be followed for 1 year after the installation of the definitive crown. The outcomes evaluated will be patient satisfaction (main outcome), gingival phenotype, visible plaque, depth of probing, submucosal bleeding, proximal radiographic bone level, tomographic vestibular bone volume, perimplant clinical aesthetic indexes (Esthetic Pink Score and Papillary Index), evaluation three-dimensional tissue from intra-oral scanning and 3D printing, implant-related quality of life, and early and late implantation failures. Linear and logistic models of generalized estimating equations that take into account the longitudinal character of the study will be used for data analysis.
There is limited data regarding socket preservation in three wall defects and no enough evidence of implant placement in previously regenerated area with allograft. The aim of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to analyze and compare dimensional changes in extractions sites with buccal bone defects > 5 mm left untreated (simultaneous regeneration during implant placement) or treated using a mineralized allograft.
The prosthetic treatment with dental implants is challenging in posterior maxilla, where there is a sinus pneumatization. For the rehabilitation of patients with intermediate bone level, short implants have been used as alternative. It is also needed to look for the prosthetic context of rehabilitation with implants, like the use of different materials as abutments. The aim of this study is to compare the survival of two sizes of implants (short vs standard) placed in upper premolars region with need of bone graft, with a minimum of three years of follow-up, and assess the behavior of different abutments (titanium vs zirconia) in prosthesis in this context. This will be a randomized clinical trial with two groups: 1) standard implants and sinus lift; and 2) short implants without sinus lift. The patients who fulfill the inclusion criteria and accept to participate of this study, will be included in the randomization process. At the implant installation, a brown envelope, with the word SHORT or STANDARD, will be open, in order to determine the group. Abutment type will be also randomized. Four months after the installation, torque will be confirmed and the abutment will be installed. Implant failure and prosthesis failure in function of the abutment will be the outcomes. Data analysis will be conducted following a previously established spreadsheet using the Kaplan-Meier method and log rank test for success and survival, followed by Cox regression, if possible and according to the number of failures.
Background: Implant placement in the posterior maxilla is always troubled by the insufficient bone volume. Trans-alveolar sinus floor elevation (TSFE) has been proven a predictable surgical procedure to increase the bone height in the posterior maxilla. However, questions as the necessity of the bone grafting is necessary during the sinus lift and could the TSFE be performed when the residual bone height is below 5mm are still being debated. Besides, high-quality evidence on comparing the clinical outcome of transalveolar sinus floor elevation with osteotome and modified sinus floor elevation with crestal non-cutting drills is limited. Methods/Design: 120 adult patients who fit the inclusion criterions are being recruited from the first clinical division, School and Hospital of Peking University (Beijing, China). All the patients are assigned into four groups according a table of random numbers. Participants receive 1) TSFE using osteotomes with bone grafting; 2) TSFE using osteotomes without bone grafting; 3) modified TSFE with bone grafting; and 4) modified TSFE without bone grafting. The clinical operators will be concealed with the assignment until the beginning of surgical procedures. In a one year follow up period, implant survival rates, complications, implant stability, bone remodeling around the implant and patient-reported outcome (visual analogue scale for intraoperative discomfort and postoperative pain) are observed and documented. The implant stability is gauged by the resonance frequency analysis for 7 times (2, 4,8,12,16,26,52 weeks). And the bone remodeling is observed and compared by CT scan. Discussion: The result of the trial will support a better decision making in atrophy posterior maxilla when implant placement is needed. If favorable, the use of the modified TSFE would achieve as ideal outcome as the traditional TSFE but with less trauma and postoperative discomforts. Besides, whether the bone graft procedure is necessary for the TSFE will also be discussed.
The main target of the study is to compare ultra-narrow diameter implants (2.75 mm) without bone regeneration versus standard diameter implants (4.3 mm) in combination with bone regeneration. To do so, patients with missing upper central incisors, canines, first or second premolars with alveolar ridges of 6 - 8 mm of thickness will be restored with dental implants. Cone beam computed tomographic examination and clinical values will be registered before and after the surgical procedure at 6 and 12 months.
This purpose of this database is to collect, store and use appropriately derived data from routine patient care in a specialist dental practice. Comprehensive observational data will be gathered, systematically organised and be continuously updated. This data will be used to evaluate treatment outcomes and identify areas for improvement. This will contribute to the existing evidence base to validate new and current clinical concepts in dentistry. Patient consent will be sought for this, and all data extracted from patient notes will be stored and used anonymously. Use of the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP) -14 questionnaire pre and post treatment will be used to assess patient satisfaction with outcomes.
this study was conducted to clarify the effect of two different attachments on patient satisfaction and marginal bone loss. The primary and secondary objectives are to determine patient satisfaction and the marginal bone loss around implant when using CM LOC compared to conventional ball attachment. all the patients will receive a single median implant to which the denture will be loaded upon using the two different attachment systems
The aim of this split mouth study is to compare which method is better in reducing bone loss and healing times following implants. Specifically, the two methods investigated will be immediate gradual loading and early loading protocol. Research Hypothesis Immediate gradual loading using gingival formers is superior to early loading protocols in improving bone quality and thus reducing the healing time.
