About this study

Official title: In a Post -Covid-19 World, What is the Clinical Influence of Digital vs Analog Impression in Cases of All-on-4 - Prosthesis ?

Fifty six patients were randomly enrolled in the study. Participants were randomly stratified into two control groups and two test groups, from which conventional pick up and digital impressions were made respectively. Patients of group 1 (CIG Axial) and 3 (DIG Axial) received 4 axial implants whereas, group 2 patients (CIG Tilted), and group 4 (DIG Tilted) received two anterior axial implants and two distal tilted implants.

All participants received hybrid dentures. Bone loss, implant loss, maintenance of prosthesis were evaluated at 6m,12m, and 24 months follow up period.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. implant loss

    The implants were considered surviving if they were clinically stable and functioning without any mobility. Failure was defined removal of implants due to loss of integration, pain, implant mobility, paraesthesia, neuropathies or psychological reasons. Calculation of the estimated failure rate was performed by dividing the number of implant failures by the total exposure time of the implant. The total exposure time is the interval of time the implants could be followed for the entire observation time or up to failure of the implants that were lost during the follow-up period.

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. crestal bone loss

    Standardized periapical radiographs with long cone paralleling technique using film holders were used for the assessment of crestal bone loss. The loss of marginal bone relative to the implant shoulder at the mesial and distal of each implant was measured in mm and then the mean was calculated and statistically estimated. A digital intraoral imaging system was used (Digora phosphor plate reader, Soredex Tuusula, Finland). All the radiographs were scanned and then uploaded into the computer for assessing bone loss over time. The "ImageJ" software was used to take the measurements on the computer screen. Postoperative radiographs with the implants placed at the crest of the bone were compared with the 6,12 and 24 m radiographs.

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing DIG Axial, DIG Tilted and CIG Axial in people with Edentulous Mouth, run by October University for Modern Sciences and Arts at 1 site in Egypt.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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 1 Mar 2021. 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 Egypt. 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 loss (time frame: 24 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 1 Mar 2021.
