Trial summary

Isolated sinus pneumatization after single tooth extraction indicate sinus lifting for proper implant placement. The conventional way of using osteotomes to elevate the sinus is annoying to patient and also does not give the needed amount of bone around the implant. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Graftless Closed Sinus Tenting Using Dental Implants After Densah Burs Osteotomy Versus Conventional Osteotomy in Localized Sinus Pneumatization: a Randomized Clinical Trial

Isolated sinus pneumatization after single tooth extraction indicate sinus lifting for proper implant placement. The conventional way of using osteotomes to elevate the sinus is annoying to patient and also does not give the needed amount of bone around the implant. Introducing new intervention of Densah Burs helps increase bone gain around implant and decrease the patient discomfort.

Read the detailed description

The rehabilitation of the edentulous posterior maxilla using osseointegrated implants is often challenging due alveolar bone resorption, low bone density and maxillary sinus pneumatization. Maxillary sinus lift is one of the most common surgical techniques used for increasing the available bone volume to place implants and restore function and esthetics. Trans-crestal approach can be successfully adopted when residual bone height is at least 5 mm. Osteotome sinus floor elevation was first in 1994, and proved to be less invasive, more conservative, less time consuming, and reduces postoperative discomfort to the patient. Moreover, this technique was found to yield predictable results with success rates of at least 95%.

Osseodensification is a new surgical technique of biomechanical bone preparation performed for dental implant placement where bone is compacted and auto grafted into open marrow spaces and osteotomy site walls in outwardly expanding directions. It was reported that osseodensification increases the bone-implant contact, bone density, and primary stability. Moreover, the insertion torque peak is directly related to implant primary stability and host bone density. Furthermore, for every 9.8 N cm of torque increased, a reduction in failure rate of 20% in single-tooth implant restoration was observed.

The objective of this study is to evaluate crestal sinus elevation using osseodensification versus osteotomy clinically and radiographically in terms of marginal bone loss, primary and secondary stability and bone gain around the implant.

What participants receive

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

  • Use of Densah Burs in closed sinus liftProcedure or surgery

    Closed sinus will be performed using Densah Burs. Densah Burs enhance bone quality through osseodensification; a process through which bone is compacted and auto-graphted in the marrow spaces and apically to elevate the sinus floor and enhance bone density.

  • Closed sinus lift using osteotomesProcedure or surgery

    Closed sinus lift will be performed using osteotomes. Osteotomes elevate the sinus floor and enhance the bone quality.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measurement of Bone Change in Cone Beam CT

    The amount of bone change will be determined by superimposing pre-operative CBCT (cone-beam computed tomography), three months post-operative, and six months post-operative CBCT.

    Measured: three and six months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Measurement of Primary and Secondary Implant stability using Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA)

    The implant stability quotient (ISQ) of the implants will be measured using a resonance frequency analysis measuring device, that is, Ostell, at the time of placement, which is the primary stability, and after six months, which is the secondary stability. The implant stability quotient has a scale ranging from 0 to 100 in which 0 is a failed implant and 100 is maximum implant stability.

    Measured: At the day of implant placement and after six months

Model description
Patients' data will be enrolled in database of the Outpatient clinics of the Department of Oral and maxillofacial surgery, Faculty of Dentistry, Cairo University. If there is a potential eligibility, the patient will be examined thoroughly as described before. Consecutive sampling is done through screening of patients. This will continue until the target population is achieved. Identifying and recruiting potential subjects is achieved through patient database.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Use of Densah Burs in closed sinus lift and Closed sinus lift using osteotomes in people with Edentulous Alveolar Ridge, 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 4 inclusion and 14 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 24 Aug 2022. 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 Eman M Anwar, Professor (+20223642705 ext. 522, rec@dentistry.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measurement of Bone Change in Cone Beam CT (time frame: three and six months). 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 NCT05513170, which also lists 2 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 24 Aug 2022.
