About this study

Official title: An Open Prospective Study to Evaluate the Survival Rate and Marginal Bone Response of Astra Tech Dental Implants, Fixture ST, in Patients With Tooth Loss in the Posterior Maxilla.

The purpose of this study is primarily to evaluate implant survival rate of Astra Tech Fixture ST placed in the posterior maxilla. A one-stage surgical protocol will be used and the implants will be loaded four weeks after implant installation (early loading). Marginal bone levels, plaque and status of the periimplant mucosa will also be evaluated. The subjects will be followed for three years.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Implant Survival Rate

    An implant that has failed to osseointegrate, lost its osseointegration or fractured will be considered a failure effective from the date of removal. Implant Survival Rate will be calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method based on the number of placed implants. Patients who discontinued the study after the last implant failure do not affect the cumulative survival rate.

    Measured: At follow-up visit: 6 months after implants have been loaded

  2. Implant Survival Rate

    An implant that has failed to osseointegrate, lost its osseointegration or fractured will be considered a failure effective from the date of removal. Implant Survival Rate will be calculated using the Kaplan-Meyer method based on the number of placed implants. Patients who discontinued the study after the last implant failure do not affect the cumulative survival rate.

    Measured: At follow-up visit: 1 year after implants have been loaded

  3. Implant Survival Rate

    An implant that has failed to osseointegrate, lost its osseointegration or fractured will be considered a failure effective from the date of removal. Implant Survival Rate will be calculated using the Kaplan-Meyer method based on the number of placed implants. Patients who discontinued the study after the last implant failure do not affect the cumulative survival rate.

    Measured: At follow-up visit: 2 years after implants have been loaded

  4. Implant Survival Rate

    An implant that has failed to osseointegrate, lost its osseointegration or fractured will be considered a failure effective from the date of removal. Implant Survival Rate will be calculated using the Kaplan-Meyer method based on the number of placed implants. Patients who discontinued the study after the last implant failure do not affect the cumulative survival rate.

    Measured: At follow-up visit: 3 years after implants have been loaded

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Astra Tech Fixture ST in people with Jaw, Edentulous, Partially, run by Dentsply Sirona Implants and Consumables at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Feb 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 Feb 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Implant Survival Rate (time frame: At follow-up visit: 6 months after implants have been loaded). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Feb 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
