About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Implant-Abutment Interface Design on Bone and Soft Tissue Levels Around Implants Placed Using Two Different Transcrestal Sinus Floor Elevation Approaches: A Multi-Center, Double Blind, Randomized Trial

Sixty patients with partially edentulous posterior maxilla requiring a transcrestal sinus floor elevation technique to insert one implant will be selected. The purpose of this multi-center, prospective, double blind, and randomized investigation is to analyze a platform switched implant when placed at limited maxillary residual bone height with low bone density compared to a platform matching implant with or without bone graft material.

Read the detailed description

Approximately 60 subjects who require at least one posterior maxilla implant in the areas of the second pre-molars or (first or second) molars with 6 to 9 mm of crestal bone below the sinus floor, as determined on the computerized axial tomographic (CT) scan, will be recruited for the study. Subjects will receive dental implants to replace a missing tooth (second pre-molar or first/second molar) on one side of the maxillary arch. Each subject will receive one type of implant: platform switched (PS) or platform matching (PM). Each site will receive either a bone graft material composed of anorganic bovine bone mineralized (ABBM, Bio-Oss, Geistlich Pharma) or no graft material (collagen membrane used for wound healing (Collatape, Zimmer)). At implant placement surgery and post-surgical follow-ups, the treated site will be examined, clinically measured, and radiographs and photographs will be taken.

The central hypothesis is that the mean crestal bone level for the platform switched (test implants) implants will be superior to the mean crestal bone level for the platform matching (control implants) implants when placed in limited maxillary residual bone in the posterior regions, regardless of the use of bone graft material or collagen membrane.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Anorganic Bovine Bone Graft MaterialDevice

    Anorganic bovine bone graft material is intended for augmentation or reconstructive treatment of the alveolar ridge, filling periodontal defects, filling defects after root resection, apicoectomy, and cystectomy, filling extraction sockets to enhance preservation of the alveolar ridge, and elevation of maxillary sinus floor.

  • Collagen MembraneDevice

    Collagen dental wound dressing is intended for the management of oral wounds and sores, including; dental sores, oral ulcers, periodontal surgical wounds, suture sites, burns, extraction sites, surgical wounds, and traumatic wounds.

  • Shelta Platform Switching Premium ImplantsDevice

    Shelta implant systems are intended for immediate placement and function on single tooth and/or multiple tooth applications when good primary stability is achieved, with appropriate occlusal loading, in order to restore chewing function.

  • Shelta Platform Matching Premium ImplantsDevice

    Shelta implant systems are intended for immediate placement and function on single tooth and /or multiple tooth applications when good primary stability is achieved, with appropriate occlusal loading, in order to restore chewing function.

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean crestal bone level changes measured in mm using periapical radiographs and CT scans.

    Mean crestal bone level change around the implants will be determined by periapical radiographs of mesial and distal bone levels. CT scans will be used to determine buccal and lingual bone level change between implant placement and 12 months, following placement of a platform switched implants or platform matching implants.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Mean periapical sinus bone level changes measured in mm using periapical radiographs and CT scans.

    Mean periapical sinus bone level change between implant placement and 12 months will be determined by radiographic measurement (using periapical radiographs and CT scans) following placement of a platform switched implant or platform matching implant in the posterior region of the maxilla, with bone graft material or without bone graft material.

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Implant survival measured through observation.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jul 2024. 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 States. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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 crestal bone level changes measured in mm using periapical radiographs and CT scans. (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 Jul 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
