NCT ID: NCT02701387 Completed - Partial Edentulism Clinical Trials

Effect of Implant Thread Design on Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) in Early Healing Period

Start date: August 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether implant thread design impacts bone remodeling and/or dental implant stability in the early healing period. The population of this study will consist of a group of subjects who are interested in replacing two or more missing teeth with dental implants. All implant sites will be healed and not require bone augmentation for the placement of a standard 4 mm diameter implant. Subjects first will undergo a brief screening exam. If accepted, comprehensive oral exam will be completed. Subsequently, enrolled subjects will be scheduled for dental surgery to place the implant(s). Subjects will return weekly for the first 8 weeks after placement for a brief post-operative appointment in order to conduct measurements for the study.

NCT ID: NCT02507661 Completed - Partial Edentulism Clinical Trials

Effect of Alveolar Ridge Preservation on Implant Esthetic Outcomes

Start date: June 2015
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate esthetic outcome of implant supported single crowns after alveolar ridge preservation with beta three calcium phosphate with collagen type I in aesthetic region in upper jaw.

NCT ID: NCT02404649 Completed - Partial Edentulism Clinical Trials

Comparing Conventional Dental Implants and Trabecular Metalâ„¢ Dental Implants After Sinus Floor Elevation

Start date: July 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a research study to test the clinical outcome of Trabecular Metalâ„¢ Dental Implants (TMDI) (Zimmer Dental Inc Carlsbad, CA, US) in the Maxillary Sinus region. This project will enroll 30 active subjects who will receive two dental implants in the edentulous maxillary molar region. This 24-month research study will examine the clinical stability of TMDI in both sinus elevation and sinus augmentation environments. The proposed research lays the foundation for improved health care by providing surgeons and restorative dentists with data for determining the effects TMDI have on clinical success in less than optimal osseous environments. The rationale that underlies the investigation is that identification of the influences of trabecular surface design on implant stability in varying bone types will allow routine, predictable use of early loading, which, in turn, will translate into more rapid, economical health care, and improved psychosocial well-being of the patient. If these hypotheses are correct, the results are expected to provide evidence based research data to support early loading and immediate loading of single implants in sites of adequate bone volume, and density with or without the use of graft materials in sinus lift procedures. In addition, it is expected that these results will fundamentally advance the field of implant dentistry and bioengineering by providing information on the principles of the bone density-mechanical environment-implant stability interaction.

NCT ID: NCT02387970 Completed - Partial Edentulism Clinical Trials

Immediate or Delayed Provisionalization in Posterior Healed Sites

Start date: March 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In this study, the investigators will examine the performance of a new dental implant that has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use to replace of missing teeth. The investigators will study two groups of patients: one group will receive a temporary crown to replace the missing tooth at the same day as implant surgery; the second group will receive a similar crown 3 months later. Both groups will receive a permanent crown on the implant 4 months after surgery, and will be followed up for a period of 12 months. The investigators want to examine whether the healing of the bone and gums surrounding the implant that receives a crown immediately is similar to the healing of the implant when the crown is delivered later. If this is indeed the case, then the investigators will be able to recommend faster treatment for all patients.

NCT ID: NCT02161874 Completed - Partial Edentulism Clinical Trials

Evaluation of Integration Success and Crestal Bone Preservation Biomet 3i's T3 Implant System

OAK
Start date: April 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study evaluates the T3 implant system for the preservation of alveolar crestal bone and the establishment of initial integration. The new surface-treated features of the implant may contribute to improved soft and hard tissue healing. The success rate of the T3 implant will be no different than that of the control implant, which possess similar geometry but different surface treatments.

NCT ID: NCT02158377 Completed - Partial Edentulism Clinical Trials

TM vs TSV Implants Loaded Early vs Conventional in Anterior and Posterior Areas

TMEL
Start date: March 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Randomized-controlled, multicenter study of Trabecular Metal (TM) and Tapered Screw-Vent (TSV) dental implants loaded early in maxillary and mandibular sites.

NCT ID: NCT01953991 Completed - Missing Teeth Clinical Trials

OHQoL With Removable Partial Dentures; a Pilot Study

Start date: May 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Removable false teeth (called removable partial dentures (RPDs)) are commonly made for people with missing teeth. RPDs are made out of a framework and the replacement teeth/gum. The framework sits on the teeth and the gums and can be made out of different materials, metal or non-metal, with different properties. The plastic teeth and gum sit on the framework. A common framework material is cobalt chromium, a rigid, non-precious metal alloy. Other framework materials include titanium and non-metal materials such as medical grade polyetheretherketone (PEEK). A review of the literature shows that no research has been reported investigating how different RPD framework materials impact on a person's oral health related quality of life (OHQoL). The sensation that different frameworks have in the mouth can be quite varied between people, and it would be relevant to be able to tell patients which type of framework is better tolerated based on research evidence. We hope to conduct an un-blinded randomised crossover pilot trial investigating the difference in patient preference and oral health related quality of life measured by patient centred outcomes in a group of patients due to receive tooth supported removable partial dentures at the Charles Clifford Dental Hospital.

NCT ID: NCT01808794 Completed - Partial Edentulism Clinical Trials

Comparison of Two Different Membranes

Start date: January 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the study is to compare one material called "Mucograft" with another material called "Dynamatrix." These materials are used as a type of a barrier (made from pig material also known as porcine material) in a preservation technique to increase the thickness and width of tissues at a tooth extraction site. The investigators want to see if one works better than the other or if they work equally as well. These materials are made up of collagens, which are naturally occurring proteins found in the skin, specifically connective tissue. Dynamatrix is made up of many types of collagens whereas Mucograft is only made of fewer collagens. These materials have been given something called a 510(k) status by the FDA. This means that the FDA determines them to be equivalent to another product that they have previously approved. You will be put into one of two groups at random, and will not know which one you are in. Like flipping a coin, you will have a 50/50 chance to be in either one of the two groups. You will either be in a group using Mucograft or in a group using Dynamatrix. Both of these materials are regularly used in the dental clinics.
