About this study

Official title: Prospective Evaluation of Zirconia Based Tooth- and Implant- Supported Fixed Dental Prostheses

The objective of this prospective clinical study is to investigate the differences in the complication rates between tooth- and implant- supported zirconia based fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) with at least 4 units. The null-hypothesis is that there is no difference in the complication rates between implant- supported and tooth- supported zirconia FDPs.

Read the detailed description

The study aims to provide evidence regarding the clinical behaviour of long-span tooth- and implant-supported FDPs.

Being tested
Teeth abutment, Implant abutments
Keywords
prospective study, chipping, survival rate, fracture resistance, zirconia

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Fixed Dental Prostheses (FDPs) With Failure

    "Failure" was recorded if there was a need to remove the Fixed Dental Prosthesis over the observation period.

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Fixed Dental Prostheses (FDPs) With Chip/s

    Measurement of the amount of fractures of the veneering material 6,12,18,24,30 and 36 months after placement of the restorations. The percentage of chips for the implant- and tooth- supported restorations will be reported.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Teeth abutment and Implant abutments in people with Zirconia Based Fixed Dental Prostheses, run by Technische Universität Dresden.

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 5 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 24 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 24 Mar 2015). 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?

Number of Fixed Dental Prostheses (FDPs) With Failure (time frame: 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02220764, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 24 Mar 2015.
