  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Subjects for this study will be recruited from the practices of the six study centers (Dr. Caudry + 5 centers from the North American PEERS group) within a period of eighteen months from commencement of the study. A total of sixty subjects (ten per center) of any gender and race aged 18 and older will be accepted provided they meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria (see page 6). Dental implants for permanent tooth replacement are not indicated for use in those under the age of 18. Vulnerable subjects will not be included.

Who may be able to join

  • Capacity to provide written informed consent to participate in the study.
  • 18 years or older
  • Site requirements:
  • Missing one or both maxillary lateral incisors (if missing both, then both sites must be used in the study) or Single missing mandibular incisor or Two missing mandibular incisors, not adjacent to one another (both sites must be used in the study) Aside from the missing teeth specified above, all other teeth in the sextant must be present.
  • A minimum of premolar occlusion is required. A minimum mesio-distal and buccal-lingual distance of 5mm is required

Who cannot join

  • Rampant caries or unstable periodontal disease of the remaining dentition.
  • Any systemic or local disease or condition that may compromise post-operative healing.
  • Long-term use of systemic corticosteroids or other medications that may compromise post-operative healing.
  • Present alcohol and/or drug abuse.

Read the detailed description

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY:

The purpose of this research study is to examine the aesthetics (the appearance of the implanted tooth and gums) as well as the soft tissue loss over a three-year period. This study involves replacing a missing small front tooth with a dental implant, abutment, and crown. A titanium dental implant acts as the replacement for a tooth root. An abutment is made of titanium which is either gold or silver in color and cannot be seen; but may affect the way the gum looks. An abutment is the component that attaches the crown to the implant post. A crown (which acts as the tooth replacement) is made of metal and/or porcelain and attaches over the abutment.

The dental implant and the abutments used in this study have been approved by Health Canada and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the use of replacing the small teeth in the front of the mouth.

The abutment is made in two colors (either gold or silver) and you cannot choose. For each subject this is decided by chance. You will have an equal chance of getting a gold or silver-colored attachment. You will know which color the abutment will be once you have consented to be in the study and registered. You will know the color of the abutment before the implant is placed. The abutment is covered by the crown.

You will be in this study for about three years. There will be approximately 60 subjects who will participate in this study in different centres, in Canada and the USA.

What is being measured

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

  1. Recession

    The Astra Tech 3.0 mm 2 piece implant can be placed and restored in a 5 mm or greater bone space for a mandibular incisor or maxillary lateral incisor site (minimum 5 mm mesio-distal [side to side] bone width and 5mm bucco-lingual [front to back] bone width) without exhibiting recession of the soft tissue (gingival margin or the interproximal papillae).

    Measured: every 12 months for 3 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Esthetic parameter Scores

    Esthetic parameter scores will be higher when the Atlantis Gold Hue titanium abutment is used in comparison to the Atlantis titanium abutment.

    Measured: every 12 months up to three years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Recession, run by Dr.Suzanne Caudry Implant Dentistry and Periodontics at 1 site in Canada.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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 3 May 2011. 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 Canada. 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?

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?

Recession (time frame: every 12 months for 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 3 May 2011.
