About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Prospective, International, Multi-center Clinical Study to Evaluate the Peri-implant Tissue Outcome of Abutment-supported XiVE® CAD/CAM Supra-structures and Directly Implant-supported XiVE® CAD/CAM Supra-structures (Split-mouth) in Partly Edentulous Human Subjects.

This study has been designed in order to collect data with regards to the peri-implant tissue outcome of abutment-supported restoration and direct implant-fixed restoration. Therefore a small group of subjects with partly edentulous maxilla is selected to show that both techniques are efficient and safe and to show comparable peri-implant tissue outcome for both methods. At the time of impression forming for each centre treatment A (= abutment-supported XiVE® CAD/CAM supra-structure) and B (= direct implant-fixed XiVE® CAD/CAM supra-structure) is assigned to the left and right side of the maxilla by being randomized at the time of impression forming.

Read the detailed description

The planned study profile is to assess the peri-implant tissue outcome of abutment-supported restoration and direct implant-fixed restoration. Two treatments, Treatment A which is the abutment-fixed supra-structure and Treatment B, the direct implant-fixed restoration, are assessed within the scope of this clinical investigation.

Treatment A: The XiVE® CAD/CAM supra-structure is fixed on abutments. The effect of platform-switching which is discussed intensely in the scientific literature is used in order to shift away the connection between implant and supra-construction (interface) from the implant edge and peri-implant tissue and towards the implant centre. However, the implant-abutment-connection area is a potential entry port for micro-organisms which have direct influence on the state of the peri-implant hard and soft tissue and consequently on the long-term prosthetic and implant success [8]. By using an abutment as a connector between implant and supra-structure implies the generation of one more micro-gap (between supra-structure and abutment) and possible retention of microbial plaque though located above the hard tissue level.

Treatment B: The XiVE® CAD/CAM supra-structure is fixed directly on the implants. In contrary to treatment A, only one entry port (micro-gap) for micro-organisms exists: The interface between supra-construction and implant. So, there is one main point where the initial force has main influence on the implant and the peri-implant tissue [8-10]. Besides, this interface lies directly on the implant shoulder level and by that on the osseous level. There is no displacement of the transitional area to the implant centre.

This study has been designed in order to collect data with regards to the CAD/CAM system used on the DENTSPLY Friadent implant system XiVE®. In particular, the peri-implant tissue outcome of abutment-supported restoration and direct implant-fixed restoration will be evaluated. Therefore a small group of subjects with partly edentulous jaw is selected to show that both techniques are efficient and safe and to demonstrate the non-inferiority with regards to the peri-implant tissue outcome for any of both techniques.

Each subject will receive both treatments, treatment A on the one site of the maxilla and treatment B on the other. The randomization method which finally defines which subject receives one treatment on the left maxilla region and the other on the right maxilla area or vice versa is described in section 5.1.

In conclusion, both treatments might have pros and cons which may affect the peri-implant tissue outcome.

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Change of Bone Level

    Intra-oral radiographs from implant insertion and at time for prosthesis insertion as well as from 1 and 2-year follow-up visits (calculated from the time of loading) should be taken for evaluation of bone level. All radiographs will be examined by an independent dentist.

    For the purpose of this examination XCP film holder (DENTSPLY Rinn, 1212 Abbott Drive, Elgin, Illinois 60123-1819, USA) are individualized for each subject and for each x-ray.

    Measured: 0, 12, 24 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Sulcus-fluid-flow-rate

    The evaluation of the sulcus fluid flow rate (SFFR) is a common method for the objective definition of the gingiva inflammation level in clinical research. The SFFR is measured with an electronic sulcus fluid hygrometer, and always as the first procedure in order not to be influenced by other investigation parameters.

    The hydrometer values results are generally classified in the categories healthy (0-20), slightly irritated (21-40), moderately irritated (< 100) and strongly inflamed (> 100). For this clinical investigation no absolute values, but relative values were compared. The SFFR values measured for each implant at Visit 1 were defined as "zero point-values". The respective first natural tooth in mesial direction served as control.

    All values obtained at the following visits for each implant were compared to the appropriate reference value (zero point).

    Measured: 6 weeks, 6, 12, 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Abutment-supported XiVE CAD/CAM bridge and Implant-supported XiVE CAD/CAM bridge in people with Partly Edentulous Maxilla, run by Dentsply Implants Manufacturing GmbH 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 10 inclusion and 12 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 13 Sep 2022. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Sep 2022). 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?

Mean Change of Bone Level (time frame: 0, 12, 24 months). 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 13 Sep 2022.
