About this study

Official title: Immediate Loading After Conventional and Ultrasonic Implant Site Preparation: a Multicenter Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

multi center study with randomized controlled trial design, split mouth

Read the detailed description

The present study has been designed as a multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial design. Fifteen clinical centers will treat patients by inserting and immediately loading implants with two different surgical protocols. Each patient will receive two identical implants: after randomization, the test site will be prepared by ultrasonic microvibrations and the control site using twist drills. Both implants will be loaded with a provisional crown within 48 hours after surgery. For each inserted implant, collection of experimental parameters will be required up to 2 years after surgery.

Being tested

Keywords

What participants receive

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

  • ultrasound implant site preparationProcedure or surgery

    piezoelectric bone surgery will be used to create implant bone ostectomy

  • conventional implant site preparationProcedure or surgery

    twist drills will be used to create implant bone ostectomy

What is being measured

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

  1. implant survival rate

    how many implant are present in mouth

    Measured: two years after surgery

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. implant success rate

    implant stable and fulfilling success criteria

    Measured: two years after surgery

  2. biomechanical complications

    every complication linked to the crown, implant abutment structure

    Measured: two years after surgery

  3. marginal bone loss

    radiographically assessed bone level

    Measured: two years after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ultrasound implant site preparation and conventional implant site preparation in people with Bone Atrophy, Alveolar, run by International Piezosurgery Academy at 1 site in Italy.

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 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2017. 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 Italy. 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?

implant survival rate (time frame: two years after surgery). 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 NCT03357406, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 Nov 2017.
