About this study

Official title: A Comparative Study to Evaluate Bone Height Gain Following Transcrestal Sinus Floor Elevation Using Specially Designed Drills Versus the Conventional Osteotome Technique: a Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.

Radiographic evaluation of the amount of bone height gain and clinical evaluation of the possibility of developing complications after transcrestal sinus floor elevation using drills and the conventional osteotome technique.

Read the detailed description

Short implants (< 10 mm) are one of the options used to overcome low vertical bone height in the maxilla. However, short implants have faced many challenges as smaller implant surface; therefore less bone-to-implant contact after osseointegration with force distribution on a reduced surface after loading. This leads to more crestal bone resorption with more threads exposure decreasing the long term implant success Another treatment option is placing implants in specific anatomical areas, such as the pterygoid region or the zygoma .Many complications are reported as postoperative sinusitis, temporary paresthesia, epistaxis, facial, periorbital hematoma, orbital penetration and prosthetic difficulties due to the implants palatal emergence.

Vertical augmentation with bone grafts is another treatment option. However, it has many drawbacks as the unpredictable graft resorption, low bone to implant contact, higher possibility of wound dehiscence, as well as compromised implant position leading to undesirable prosthetic restorations.

To overcome the problems of the previously mentioned procedures, elevation of the sinus membrane techniques were proposed, it can be performed either through a lateral window , or via a crestal access depending on the remaining bone height (RBH). If the RBH is around 6-9 mm, the crestal approach is indicated. If the RBH is less than 5 mm, a lateral approach should be performed.

For the crestal approach, it could be performed by the conventional osteotome technique. However, it is a visually restrictive technique which may lead to sinus perforation as well as it can cause some complications as headache and paroxysmal positional vertigo (Saker e Ogle, 2005; Peñarrocha-Diago et al., 2008).

To overcome the disadvantages of the conventional osteotome technique, various kits have been developed for transcrestal sinus floor elevations using specially designed drills.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dask Advanced Sinus kit in people with Compromised Vertical Bone Height in the Maxillary Posterior Region, run by Cairo University.

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 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Oct 2016. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Omar A Ashour, Bachelor (01115537575, o.ashour@live.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

bone height gain (time frame: 6 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 6 Oct 2016.
