Trial summary

The better form of ridge will provide using wider implants that can have better abilities to with stand forces and to prevent alveolar bone loss as much as possible. Ridge expansion gained some popularity due to easiness compared to any other procedure that can gain bone. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of Mini Implants Supported Over Dentures Versus Conventional Implant After Bone Expansion in Thin Mandibular Ridge on Patient Satisfaction:

The better form of ridge will provide using wider implants that can have better abilities to with stand forces and to prevent alveolar bone loss as much as possible. Ridge expansion gained some popularity due to easiness compared to any other procedure that can gain bone. However, this treatment modality needs to be evaluated as compared to Mini Dental Implants (MDIs) over denture in thin mandibular ridge.

In mandibular edentulous patients having thin ridge, does the mini implant supported over denture, compared to the conventional implant supported over denture after bone expansion affect bone height around implants?

PICO

P: Completely edentulous Patients.

I: Mandibular overdenture supported by mini dental implant.

C: Mandibular overdenture supported by conventional implant diameter after bone expansion.

O: outcomes as follows:

Primary Outcome: Patient satisfaction, Questionnaire Visual analog scale (VAS), Measuring unit: Mm. (Geckili et al.

Secondary Outcome: Bone height change, Measuring device: DIGORA® X ray, Measuring unit: Mm.

What is being measured

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

  1. patients satisfaction

    Visual analogue scale: a scale from 0-10 where 0 represents unsatisfied and 10 represents highly satisfied.

    Measured: after six months of over denture insertion

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Bone height change

    measure the amount of bone height change in (millimetres) of all implant placed by DIGORA® X ray and Calliper device.

    Measured: baseline (T0) initial bone height (millimetres), after six months usage of over denture(T1) bone height (millimetres), then after twelve-months usage of over denture(T2) bone height. 1st period (T1-T0) after 6 months 2nd period (T2-T1) after 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mini dental implant in people with Complete Edentulism, 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 5 inclusion and 9 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 31 Oct 2017. 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 Osama Gaballa, MDS (0020127251106, osama.gaballa86@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

patients satisfaction (time frame: after six months of over denture insertion). 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 NCT03326453, 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 31 Oct 2017.
