Dental Implants Clinical Trial
Official title:
Is the Stabilization of a Mandibular Overdenture Employing Four Novel One-piece Immediately Loaded TiZr Implants With Miniaturized Stud-type Attachments a Feasible Alternative to Two Two-piece Early Loaded Tissue-level Implants With Regular Stud-type Attachments?
H0: "Within the first year post-placement, four interforaminally placed, immediately loaded 2.4 mm narrow-diameter one-piece TiZr implants with miniaturized stud-type attachments show improved patient-reported outcome measures (PROMS) compared to two interforaminally placed, early loaded, TiZr two-piece implants with stud-type attachments to retain a mandibular overdenture."The specific aim is to compare both treatment alternatives to evaluate which one may be recommended for elderly edentulous patients.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) | Change from baseline questionnaires in Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL).
Scores 0-60: higher values represent lower OHRQoL |
One-year follow-up | |
Secondary | Additional Oral Health Impact Profile for edentulism (OHIP-EDENT) | Change from baseline questionnaires | Follow-up (up to 365 days) | |
Secondary | Additional PROM Denture Satisfaction Index (DSI) | Change in Denture Satisfaction higher values represent better satisfaction (0-1200mm) | Baseline, follow-up (up to 365 days) | |
Secondary | Implant Survival | Survival (yes/no) | at implant loading (at 24 hours for arm B, at 6-8 weeks for arm A), at the one-year follow-up | |
Secondary | Implant Success | Success according to Misch (2007) Misch criteria scores 1-4: higher values represent better success | at implant loading (at 24 hours for arm B, at 6-8 weeks for arm A), at the one-year follow-up | |
Secondary | Prosthetic Survival | Prosthetic Survival (yes/no): is the denture still in place? | Baseline, follow-up (up to 365 days) | |
Secondary | Chewing Efficiency | Color mixing test | Baseline, follow-up (up to 365 days) | |
Secondary | Plaque Index | Plaque Index Scores 0-3 3= thick plaque is visible along gingival margin 2= plaque is visible along gingival margin, with or without air drying
1= following air drying, plaque is not visible but can be wiped off with an explorer 0= following air drying, plaque is not visible nor can be wiped off with an explorer |
at implant loading (at 24 hours for arm B, at 6-8 weeks for arm A), at the one-year follow-up | |
Secondary | Bleeding Index | Bleeding Index Scores 0-3 0= Healthy gingival
Gingival look inflamed, but don't bleed when probed Gingival look inflamed and bleed when probed Ulceration and spontaneous bleeding |
at implant loading (at 24 hours for arm B, at 6-8 weeks for arm A), at the one-year follow-up | |
Secondary | Pocket Probing depth | depth measured in mm | at implant loading (at 24 hours for arm B, at 6-8 weeks for arm A), at the one-year follow-up | |
Secondary | Time-Cost-Analysis | Total treatment time will be collected and added. Total treatment cost will be evaluated and a ratio will be calculated. The groups will be compared on the base of this ration | After surgery, after implants loading, after follow-up (up to 365 days) | |
Secondary | Cost Effectiveness and Willingness to Pay | Cost effectiveness wil be calculated as a ratio of treatment cost in relation to change of GOHAI sum score. This will allow to evaluate how much monetary item is needed to achieve a change in GOHAI | Total change and time at 1y follow-up | |
Secondary | In-vivo evaluated loss of retentive force | Measurement with a hand-held digital force gauge | after implant loading (expected to be after 6 weeks on average) and at follow-up (up to 365 days) |
