Clinical Trial Summary

Background: Maxillary sinus floor augmentation is a standard surgical procedure to increase bone height in the atrophic posterior maxilla for dental implant placement. In bone reconstructive surgery, in general, autogenous bone is considered as the gold standard, primarily due to its osteogenic potential and remodelling capacity. Bone substitutes are available that can overcome the limitations of autologous bone due to their osteoconductive properties and biocompatibility. Several studies seem to validate these concepts, but further comparative trials are needed.

Aim: To compare the outcome of implants inserted in maxillary sinuses augmented with bovine bone grafts vs 50% bovine bone graft and 50% autologous bone according to a lateral approach.

Material and Methods: This study was designed as a randomised, controlled, clinical trial. Sixteen partially or fully edentulous patients, 20 sinuses, (four patients have been bilaterally treated) having 1 to 4 mm of residual crestal height below the maxillary sinuses were randomised according to a parallel group design. Sinuses were grafted according to a lateral approach. Group A (10 sinuses) was grafted with 50% anorganic bovine bone (Bio-Oss) and 50% autogenous bone, group B (10 sinuses) was grafted with 100% anorganic bovine bone (Bio-Oss). According with a two stages approach, after 7 months a total of 32 implants (Nobel Replace tapered groovy) were inserted with an insertion torque between 35 and 45 Ncm. At same surgical procedure a sample of bone was harvested for histomorphometric analysis . All implants were delayed loaded with screw retained temporary crowns 3 months after implants insertion and with screw retained definitive crowns 4 months later. Outcome measures were implant survival, biological and prosthetic complications, radiographic marginal bone-level changes, PPD and BOP. Clinical data were collected at baseline 6,12 months. Statistical significance was tested at the 0.05 probability level, and all values were presented as mean and standard deviation.

Intervention

Device:
50% AAB plus 50% autologous bone
All patients were evaluated clinically and their medical histories were recorded. Preliminary screening, including the acquisition of intraoral and panoramic radiographs, was performed to evaluate potential patients' eligibility. Patients who met the selection criteria received oral hygiene instructions and debridement, if required, after which bone volumes were analysed using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT; Imaging Sciences International, Hatfield, PA, USA). A staged approach was carried out at all sites. Thus, sinus lift grafting procedures were followed by implant placement 7-8 months later. Both groups received tapered implants with an anodised surface.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Other MUCOSAL RESPONSE Probing pocket depth (PPD) and bleeding on probing (BOP) were measured by a blinded operator (AD) with a periodontal probe (PCP-UNC 15, Hu-Friedy Manufacturing) at 6 and 12 months. Three vestibular and three lingual values were collected for each implant by the same dentist. Baseline, 12 months Yes
Primary IMPLANT SURVIVAL The removal of implants was dictated by instability, progressive marginal bone loss, infection, or implant fracture. The stability of individual implants was measured by the prosthodontist at the time of definitive crown delivery (5 months after implant placement) by applying 35 Ncm of removal torque. After 1 year, implant stability was tested manually with two dental mirror handles. up to 12 months Yes
Secondary MARGINAL BONE LEVELS Peri-implant marginal bone levels were evaluated on intraoral digital radiographs taken with the parallel technique. A blinded radiologist (FG), unaffiliated with the study centre, interpreted all radiographs. The distances from the mesial and distal interproximal bone to the reference point (the horizontal interface between the implant and abutment) were measured with a software tool (NIH Scion Image, ver. 4.0.2, Frederick, MD, USA) calibrated against the space between two threads to the nearest 0.1 mm, and the mean of these two measurements was calculated for each implant. The measurements were recorded with reference to the implant axis. Baseline, 12 months Yes
