About this study

This research is being done to find out the ideal number of implants/attachments required to provide adequate stability of dentures during function.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is threefold: i) to evaluate within-subject response to complete lower dentures retained by 1 or 2 or 3 implants fitted with independent overdenture attachments; ii) laboratory evaluation of the retention force generated with 1-2 or 3-implants and study its correlation to patients' response; iii) study the wear pattern of the plastic inserts on the overdenture abutments during each retention mode (i.e. the number of implants used to retain the dentures) and correlate its effects to denture stability.

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient Satisfaction survey (questionnaires)

    Assess efficacy of treatment by analysis of patient's answer to a satisfaction survey.

    Measured: every 6 months up to three years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Radiographs

    Assess crestal bone level around the implants.

    Measured: every 6 months up to three years

  2. Wear of 1 vs 2 vs 3 GPS retention components on complete dentures.

    The force required to remove the female retentive componenets from the male component will be compaired between one vs two vs three retentive components.

    Measured: baseline and 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Questionnaire in people with Complete Edentulism, run by University of Manitoba 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 6 inclusion and 8 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 29 Mar 2012. 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?

Contact Reynaldo Todescan, Dr (204-7893782, Reynaldo_Todescan@umanitoba.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Patient Satisfaction survey (questionnaires) (time frame: every 6 months up to three 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 29 Mar 2012.
