Filter by:This is a randomized controlled study that aims to compare the accuracy between full-guided with guide-pin-assisted free-hand dental implant surgeries. The basis of evaluation in each case is the comparison of the preoperative digital plan with the actual postoperative status.
Our long-term goal is to generate evidence for the creation of successful implant restorations and ideal supporting tissues in adequate health by utilizing patient-tailored implant protocols such as the use of customized computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) healing abutments. With this study, the investigators intend to recruit patients requiring a single implant placement and implant crown in molar areas. Patients will be randomly assigned to either the control group that will receive standard healing abutments or the test control group that will receive customized CAD/CAM healing abutments. Patients will be followed for six months after the delivery of the implant crowns. The central hypothesis is that the use of customized CAD/CAM healing abutments will demonstrate improved outcomes in terms of hard and soft tissue volume stability and clinical parameters as compared to the use of standard healing abutments. Aim 1 will measure soft and hard tissue changes around dental implants when customized CAD/CAM healing abutments are utilized as compared to standard healing abutments. Soft tissue stability will be measured utilizing intraoral digital scans, while osseous levels will be measured utilizing CBCT scans. Soft and hard tissue volumetric and linear changes will be measured by digital scan superimposition at the time of crown delivery and 6 months thereafter. Volumetric and linear changes will be compared within each group at different time points and between the test and control group to determine if the use of customized CAD/CAM healing abutments is advantageous in terms of maintaining peri-implant soft and hard tissue stability. Aim 2 will assess different clinical measurements around dental implants to analyze if the use of customized CAD/CAM healing abutments will demonstrate improved plaque control and peri-implant health as compared to standard healing abutments. Plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing depths (PD), and bleeding on probing (BOP) will be obtained at the time of crown delivery and at 3 and 6 months. Clinical measurements will be compared between the test and control group to determine if the use of customized CAD/CAM healing abutments will aid in obtaining a natural looking restoration that would result in improved clinical parameters that measure peri-implant health. Aim 3 will compare the degree of patient satisfaction using a visual analogue scale (VAS) in patients that received an implant restoration following the use of a customized CAD/CAM healing abutment as compared to standard healing abutments. Patients will complete a VAS questionnaire that will evaluate patient perception of pain, esthetics, ability to chew, and ability to clean. Scores will be compared among groups to evaluate if there is a difference in patient-centered outcomes when customized healing abutments are used as compared to standard healing abutments.
This Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up study aims to document the success and survival of the Axiom® BL X3 Implants up to 3 years after loading.
The primary aim of this study was to compare the acoustic sound quality of edentulous patients rehabilitated with two-implant overdentures or the all-on-4 concept. The secondary aims were to evaluate the effect of implant and prosthetic success on acoustics.
Is to compare between the conventional drills versus osseodensification drills for implant stability and peri-implant marginal bone loss in maxillary implant overdenture.
In this case-control study a bioactive implant surface was compared with traditional surfaced implants. Primary objectives: Test the implant stability in post-extractive sites, comparing traditional surfaced implants (MultiNeO CS, control group) to bioactive surfaced implants (NINA- MultiNeO NH, treatment group). Primary outcome endpoints were Implant stability, assessed through Implant stability quotient (ISQ) values and Marginal bone loss (MBL)
Real-life evaluation of the safety and performance of EUROTEKNIKA dental implants
In this study, the dimensional changes of the labial alveolar ridge are digitally assessed after immediate implant placement using the socket shield technique with computer guided sectioning of the root.
Loss of masticatory function consequent to tooth loss is associated with changes in food choices and insufficient nutrition intake. To date, studies showed no significant improvement in nutrient intake with interventions based solely on dental prostheses. Pilot studies have shown positive impacts of interventions combining implant-supported fixed dental prosthesis with brief dietary interventions. The relative contribution and the potential synergy of the components of such interventions need to be determined as it has major public health implications for the community-dwelling ageing population that continues to disproportionately suffer from tooth loss and its consequences. This study tests the effect of rehabilitation of masticatory function with fixed implant supported dentures and diet re-education on the dietary intake and nutrition in older subjects with terminal dentition (stage IV periodontitis) or full edentulism. A 2 × 2 factorial randomized controlled trial of eligible adult (≥60 years) with loss of masticatory function consequent to full arch edentulism or terminal dentition (n = 120) will be conducted to test whether the rehabilitation of masticatory function with fixed implant supported dentures, diet re-education and/or their combination improves the diet and nutrition of ageing subjects. The study has been designed to detect changes in fruit and vegetable intake at 4 months using the 24-hour dietary recall method. Changes in protein as percentage of total energy, nutritional biomarkers, metabolomics, oral and gut microbiome, quality of life and masticatory function will also be assessed.
