About this study

Official title: Influence of Buccal and Palatal Bone Thickness on Post-surgical Marginal Bone Changes Around Implants Placed in Posterior Maxilla

The primary outcome of the study was the vertical variation of peri-implant buccal and palatal bone level from implant placement (T0) to uncovering stage (3 months later - T1)

Read the detailed description

despite various recommendations, there is insufficient evidence to set a threshold for minimal buccal bone thickness necessary to ensure peri-implant marginal bone stability and optimal aesthetic outcomes.

Therefore, the aim of the present multi-centre prospective study was to investigate the influence of buccal and palatal bone thickness at the time of implant placement on peri-implant bone remodeling during the submerged healing period, with a strict control of possible confounding factors.

    measurement after implant site preparation with a caliper

    Measured: three months after surgery

  3. peri-implant bone changes in height buccal

    measurement after implant insertion with a probe

    Measured: three months after surgery

  4. peri-implant bone changes in height palatal

    measurement after implant insertion with a probe

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bone Implant; Complications, run by International Piezosurgery Academy at 2 sites 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 6 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 30 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

peri-implant bone changes in width buccal (time frame: three months after surgery). The study lists 4 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 NCT05632172, 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 30 Nov 2022.
