Filter by:Although bone grafting at the same time as the placement of dental implants is a common procedure in implantology, there are currently no data on the influence of different types of implant surfaces on bone healing, which is crucial for implant stability. The primary objective of this study is to assess if implant surface properties, i.e. hydrophilicity, affect the osseointegration of the implant in simultaneously augmented bone. The secondary objective is to assess if implant surface properties, i.e. surface hydrophilicity, may affect the quantity of newly formed bone in the implant in simultaneously augmented bone. Surface hydrophilicity modification is a well-adapted concept in dental implantology and is clinically well-established. In this prospective study, all participants will receive a bone graft after extraction. After randomization, one group will receive a provisional SLA surface implant and another group will receive a provisional SLActive surface implant. The same standard surgical procedure will be performed for both groups when the definitive implant will be placed. The study will run for a total of 3 year, and 35 patients per group will be included. The Straumann SLA and SLActive implants, Maxgraft allograft and collprotect collagen membranes used in this study are all approved products on the Swiss market.
This clinical investigation is conducted to prove the long-term clinical performance of a new printable denture base material. The aim of this study is to assess the failure rate, the quality and functionality of the full dentures made with the printable denture base material over an investigational period of 5 years.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of zero echo time magnetic resonance imaging (ZTE MRI) as an ionizing radiation-free diagnostic method to evaluate both hard and soft tissues and maxillary sinus region before dental implants in the posterior maxillary region.
The aims of this clinical study are: 1) to compare the accuracy of conventional versus digital impression techniques for implant impressions; 2) to assess the passive fit of the prosthesis constructed from the most accurate impression. Thirty edentulous patients who received 4 - 6 implant and indicated for implant-supported fixed prosthesis will be invited. Full-arch conventional and digital impressions will be made for each patient. Accuracy evaluation will be made and the prosthesis will be constructed from the most accurate impression. Passive fit of the zirconia implant-supported prostheses will be verified at the try-in stage clinically and radiographically.
To compare the accuracy of digital impression and conventional impression for complete-arch implant-supported fixed prosthesis
To evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of KS implants used to rehabilitate edentulous mandible with dental-retained overdentures, and to compare it with same treatment on TS implants
To address the gap of knowledge in comparing between the bone augmentation outcomes with or without tacks for membrane stabilization
The aim of this randomized clinical trial to compare the implant positional accuracy of robotic system-assisted implant surgery with that of static system-assisted implant surgery. Patients will be recruited and randomly assigned to either the robotic surgery group or the static navigation surgery group to evaluate the accuracy of the implants in both groups and to compare patient-reported and physician-reported outcomes of the two approaches.
CAD/CAM (computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing) can be a game-changer for better access to care by edentulous patients. Digital overdentures offer potential for more satisfied patients due to better fit and can be provided faster/with lower costs. Providing digital overdentures has potential to enhance access to oral healthcare by the elderly, given the expected benefits (better quality, simpler, faster and more affordable than those obtained traditionally). However, evidence from randomized trials is crucial to verify the relevance of those benefits, especially from the patient perspective, and to confirm those benefits. This trial also serves as an opportunity to improve CAD software and materials, since it will identify technical challenges specific to the provision of digital overdentures. This randomized cross-over trial aims to reveal whether implant-retained mandibular overdentures (IMO) produced by CAD and 3D printing are more satisfactory to edentulous seniors than those fabricated using traditional methods. The investigators will recruit 26 edentulous participants (any sex/gender) amongst previous patients at McGill University, based on the following eligibility criteria: complete edentulism, elderly (age ≥60 years, according to the WHO), need for new maxillary and mandibular complete dentures, ability to complete questionnaires, and previous treatment with two implants in the anterior mandible. Each participant will receive two pairs of dentures, as per the McGill Consensus on Implant Overdentures (i.e., a mandibular overdenture opposed by a maxillary complete denture: (i) one by digital rendering of the mouth, virtual prosthetic design and 3D printing; (ii) a control pair, by traditional clinical and laboratory methods. Each pair will be worn for 3 months according to a random sequence (total follow-up: 6 months after the delivery of the first pair of dentures). Both overdentures will be retained by 2 Novaloc abutments and medium retention matrices. Outcomes will include patient satisfaction ratings and oral health-related quality of life. The investigators will evaluate other patient-reported outcomes, as well as clinician-assessed quality and cost. Outcome assessment will occur at baseline, then at three months after participants have worn each pair of dentures. Following the cross-over, participants will keep their preferred denture pair and return after 12 months to evaluate maintenance requirements, including stained and broken dentures.
It is a randomized control clinical trial in which maxillary and mandibular dentures will be constructed, two implants will be inserted in the inter foraminal region in the edentulous mandible and immediate loading will be done. We will be comparing peri-implant marginal bone loss of two immediately loaded implants retaining mandibular overdentures with ball attachment versus intra oral welding titanium bar. Patient satisfaction will be assessed using oral health related quality of life.
