NCT ID: NCT06348823 Recruiting - Soft Tissue Clinical Trials

Relationship Between Soft Tissue Volume and Gingival Phenotype: A Novel Classification System

Start date: February 25, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Different classifications to describe alveolar ridge defects have been published over the past years but no single classification has been developed concerning soft tissue volume around teeth or dental implants. Moreover, while several studies investigated the effect of various augmentation techniques and materials on soft tissue volume change and volume stability there is a real gap of knowledge regarding how to evaluate the available soft tissue volume and when to consider it sufficient or deficient which would definitely improve clinical decision making and treatment planing. Therefore, our primary aim was to assess the application of a novel classification system based on the correlation between buccal soft tissue volume and gingival biotypes and, also to assess the sensitivity of such novel method.

NCT ID: NCT06191510 Completed - Dental Implants Clinical Trials

Xenogenic Bone Intentionally Left Exposed

Start date: October 17, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare, the effect of letting the xenogeneic bone graft exposed to the oral environment or seal off the graft with a collagen matrix. Them main questions it aims to answer are: - The enhancement of soft tissue healing during the initial phases following immediate implant placement. - The secondary aim is to evaluate the dimensional alterations in hard tissues at immediately placed implants and different biomaterial protocol. It were selected patients with indication of flapless extraction in posterior teeth, which was placed immediate implant (n=28) and gap filling with deproteinized bovine bone mineral (Geistlich Bio-Oss®). In this study, participants were stratified into two randomized blocks, each corresponding to a distinct surgical technique: left exposed the graft to the oral environment or coverage with a collagen matrix (Geistlich Mucograft®). - Previously the extraction was performed the measurement of the keratinized gingiva, and after 04 months of implant placement. - The soft tissue healing was evaluated on days 02, 07, 30 days; by means of a blue-stained solution (methylene blue 0.05%) and standardized photograph. - In the same date from different healing times it was performed immunoenzymatic analysis of the levels of VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor), IL-1β (interleukin-1β) and FGF2 (fibroblast growth factor 2). - It was also be performed cone beam computed tomography images quantifying the soft and hard tissues thickness of the facial and lingual bone wall. The clinical trial examiner was blinded during the study period.

NCT ID: NCT05670340 Completed - Bone Loss Clinical Trials

Effect of Bone-related and Soft-tissue-related Variables on the Marginal Bone Loss of Platform-matched and Platform Switched Dental Implants

Start date: January 22, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In this clinical trial the effect of the implant-abutment morphology (platform-switched vs platform matched) will be assessed in both soft tissue (soft tissue thickness) and hard tissue (marginal bone loss) outcomes. Several clinical predictors (initial implant position level, gingival biotype, abutment height and prosthetic emergence profile) will also be taken into account as modulating factors of the clinical outcome.

NCT ID: NCT04753866 Completed - Prosthesis User Clinical Trials

Facial Scanning for Lip Support Assessment in Full Arch Implant Rehabilitations

Start date: June 20, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Lip support plays an important role in facial esthetics, being a relevant factor when realizing full arch implant supported rehabilitations. However, there is a lack of research on the three dimensional impact of such restorations.

NCT ID: NCT04050878 Completed - Soft Tissue Clinical Trials

Three-dimensional Assessment of Facial Alterations Induced by Dental Prostheses

Start date: June 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Validation of the use of a facial scanner for assessment of modifications caused by the use of dental prostheses and determination of discrepancies related to conventional measurements with digital caliper.

NCT ID: NCT03509337 Completed - Elastography Clinical Trials

Changes in the Ulnar Tissues by Shear-wave Elastography

Start date: May 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

A single-center, observational, prospective, single cohort study with before-after design. Evaluation by shear-wave elastography, measured in kilopascals (KPa), of the muscle, tendon and cubital nerve, before and after the maneuver of putting in tension of the ulnar nerve.

NCT ID: NCT03501537 Completed - Peri-Implantitis Clinical Trials

Association of Keratinised Mucosa Around Implants and Teeth With Peri-implant/Periodontal Disease and Soft Tissue Conditioning

Start date: February 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Lack of keratinised mucosa around dental implants and teeth is associated with plaque accumulation and worse tissue conditions. However, there is lack of data on the influence of the presence/lack of keratinised mucosa on the periodontal condition. Hence, soft tissue conditioning by grafting with a gingival graft is aimed at improving the quality of the peri-implant conditions

NCT ID: NCT03496428 Completed - Soft Tissue Clinical Trials

Customized Impressions in Dental Implants - Soft Tissues Changes

Start date: June 2, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Six patients with a single unit implant in the anterior maxilla (from premolar to premolar), after at least 3 months with provisional implant supported restoration will be submitted to definitive implant impressions. Informed consents and local ethical committee clearance will be obtained. Patients will be submitted to a silicon impression with a customized impression coping from which a conventional cast will be obtained and scanned with D2000 (3Shape) and to an intraoral scan with Trios (3Shape). Standard Tessellation Language (STL) files will be obtained from both procedures and imported to reverse engineering software Geomagic Control X (3D Systems) and the distance between both scans will be calculated in a colored 3D map. From this map, two outcomes will be analyzed: the changes in soft tissues around implants with the two techniques (primary outcome) and the discrepancy between both scans in the teeth adjacent to the implants (secondary outcome).

NCT ID: NCT03458520 Recruiting - Lymphoma Clinical Trials

Pediatric PET/MR Image Registry

Start date: February 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to compare whole body magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, whole body positron emission tomography (PET)/MR imaging, and (if available) PET/Computed Tomography (CT) imaging for the diagnosis of tumors in children and young adults. Sensitivities, specificities and diagnostic accuracies of the different imaging modalities will be compared for significant differences.

NCT ID: NCT01223248 Active, not recruiting - Ovarian Cancer Clinical Trials

Randomized Study Comparing Two Dosing Schedules for Hypofractionated Image-Guided Radiation Therapy

Start date: October 2010
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to find out which way of giving high-dose radiation works best for treatment of cancer that has spread to bone, the spine, soft tissue, or lymph nodes. This study will look at the effects, good and/or bad, of giving 27 Gy in three fractions (3 days) or 24 Gy in one fraction (1 day) using image-guided intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IG-IMRT). IG-IMRT is radiation that is given directly to the cancer site and reduces the exposure to normal tissue. Currently there are no studies that compare the effects of giving radiation in either hypofractionated doses (higher total doses of radiation spread out over several treatment days) or a single-fraction dose (entire radiation dose given in one treatment session). The patient may be asked to participate in an additional part of this study where we will get a a (DW/DCE) MRI before treatment start and within one hour after radiation treatment. If the patient is asked to take part in this portion of the study, all they will need to do is get up to 3 MRIs with standard contrast injection. The purpose of this is to see if as a result of the treatment there are changes in the blood flow going to the cancer which could suggest that the treatment may be successful. In addition some patients can present new lesions and may be asked if they would like to have these new lesions treated on the protocol. If they are given this option, this will not extend their follow up period. The follow up of the new lesions will match with the prior follow up dates.
