About this study

Official title: Prospective Observational Study of SynCone® Concept: Patient-related Outcomes, Clinical, Radiographic, Immunoinflammatory Mediators and Microbiological Analysis

The aim of this prospective observational study will be to evaluate patient-related outcomes, clinical, microbiological and peri-implant immunoinflammatory mediators in completely edentulous patients rehabilitated with delayed loaded overdentures prostheses. The investigators hypothetize that this system could restore edentulous patients with healthier mucosal concerning clinical, microbiological and immunoinflammatory parameters, besides to promote improvement in patient satisfaction and quality of life.

Read the detailed description

This prospective observational study will include fifteen edentulous patients rehabilitated with conventional dentures. Patients will receive four to six maxillary implants loaded three months after surgery. Clinical, microbiological and immunoinflammatory parameters will be evaluated at baseline, three, and six months following overdenture prosthesis. Patient-centered/reported outcomes concerning general satisfaction with the prostheses as well as comfort, ability to speak, stability, esthetics, ease of cleaning and occlusion, will be evaluated at baseline (conventional denture evaluation) and after 6 months (overdenture evaluation).

What is being measured

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

  1. Modified Gingival Index

    Index of mucosal condition (Mombelli et al.1987): 0 - No bleeding when a periodontal probe is passed along the mucosal margin adjacent to the implant, 1 - Isolated bleeding spots visible, 2 - Blood forms a confluent red line on mucosal margin, 3 - Heavy or profuse bleeding

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Modified Plaque Index

    Index of plaque accumulation (Mombelli et al.1987): 0 - No detection of plaque, Plaque only recognized by running a probe accross the smooth marginal surface of the implant, 2 - Plaque can be seen by the naked eye, 3 - Abundance of soft matter.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Oral Healthy Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14)

    A questionnaire will be administered to evaluate patient centered outcomes with regards to prosthesis. It has 14 questions in which the patient answers between never (0), rarely (1), sometimes (2), repeatedly (3) and always (4).

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Microbiological assays

    Peri-implant biofilm will be collected and Real Time PCR wil be performed to measure the absolute quantification of Aggregatibacter Actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, and Tannerella forsythensis

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Concentration of osteoimmuneinflammatory mediators

    Levels of osteoimmuneinflammatory mediators will be determined in the peri-implant fluid (IL-4, IL-17, IL-1β, IL-10, IL-6, IL-8, IL-23 and TNF-α)

    Measured: 6 months

  5. Crestal bone level

    Periapical radiographs will be made to evaluate crestal bone level alteration.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Tapered abutment connection in people with Jaw, Edentulous, run by Marcio Zaffalon Casati at 1 site in Brazil.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 10 Nov 2020. 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 Brazil. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 marcio casati (55 11 981625664, mzcasati@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Modified Gingival Index (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 10 Nov 2020.
