About this study

Official title: An Evaluation of Vertical Augmentation of Alveolar Bone With Osteon at Dental Implant Placement

Dental implants are a valid and reliable method to replace missing teeth. The major requirement for their success is an adequate volume of bone into which they can be placed. One widely used method to augment bone at the time of placing the implant is to use a bone substitute rather than taking a block bone graft from the patient. Successful augmentation in the vertical direction has often proved difficult, however, the investigators have developed a technique to achieve this in the investigators patients using a synthetic bone substitute, Osteon (Implantium, CE0120) in an attempt to avoid patients having to undergo another unnecessary surgical procedure.

Read the detailed description

Primary Objective

  • To determine the success of dental implants in alveolar bone augmented in the vertical direction with Osteon.

Secondary Objectives • To determine the long term success of dental implants in this augmented bone.

Primary Endpoint

  • Radiographically assessed vertical height of alveolar ridge formation following Osteon augmentation.
Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. The success of dental implants in alveolar bone augmented in the vertical direction with Osteon

    The implants will be deemed successful at each time point if the radiographic bone level remains at 2 mm above the level of the implant, i.e. at the same height as when placed. Given that we know precisely the dimensions of the abutments placed in the implant, this provides the necessary calibration in order to undertake this assessment. If the bone level is lost, the procedure will be deemed to have failed.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Tooth Injuries and Tooth Abnormalities, run by Research and Education in Dentistry at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jul 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Richard J Oliver, BDS PhD (00448453096323, richard.oliver@redonline.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The success of dental implants in alveolar bone augmented in the vertical direction with Osteon (time frame: 3 years). 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 Jul 2010.
