  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: patients who received at least one dental implant

Who may be able to join

  • The following inclusion criteria were applied: patients ≥18 years old and controlled medical conditions who received treatment with implants. Additionally, for the test group, inclusion criteria were: symptoms and signs suggesting early apical peri-implantitis after implant placement; absence of implant mobility; dull percussion of nonsurmerged implants; presence or absence of radiolucency apically.

Who cannot join

  • for the both groups: implants placed with guided bone regeneration or inadequate follow-up for failing to maintenance visits.

About this study

Official title: Etiology of Early Apical Peri-implantitis: A Case-control Study Over a 20-year Period.

A case-control study was performed was performed following the STROBE statement from 1996 to 2016 including patients who were diagnosed with early apical peri-implantitis. Data were collected at the time of implant placement, and once the patients developed signs and symptoms consistent with early apical peri-implantitis, to determine the frequency and etiology of this pathology.

Read the detailed description

A case-control study was performed following the STROBE statement (17) at the Oral Surgery Department, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry (University of Valencia, Spain) from 1996 to 2016, in which patients with early peri-implantitis diagnosed were included (Figure 1). All patients were informed about the study design and procedures. Prior to participating, they were requested to sign an informed consent document. The study design was approved by the Ethical Committee of the University of Valencia (H1478255958653).

Two groups were established: Test group (patients diagnosed with early apical peri-implantitis diagnosed) and Control group (patients whose implants had not developed any inflammatory/infectious process and were osseointegrated).

What is being measured

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

  1. type of surgery

    immediate/delayed placement

    Measured: Intraoperative

  2. tooth-implant distance

    mesial and distal tooth-implant distance measured at the apex

    Measured: Intraoperative

  3. Tooth status

    apical lesion or endodontic treatment in the tooth being replaced or adjacent tooth endodontically treated

    Measured: Intraoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Early Apical Peri-implantitis, run by University of Valencia.

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 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 May 2018. 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?

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?

type of surgery (time frame: Intraoperative). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03523845, which also lists 4 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?
