About this study

Official title: Association of Implant Position and Crown Contour With Esthetics and Tissue Health in Anterior Single Tooth Replacement: a Prospective Study

Emergence profile and crown contour of implant supported rehabilitation, which is influenced by implant position, is associated with peri-implant health and esthetic outcomes. However, there is no study prospectively explore the association between implant position, emergence profile/crown contour, and dental implant outcomes. Thus, the present study aims to (1) assess the multivariate association between local factors and peri-implant soft-tissue health, inflammation, and microbiome; and (2) to identify patterns/clusters of implant characteristics significantly associated with health or inflammation.

Read the detailed description

This will be a prospective study aimed at associating the development of peri-implant mucosal inflammation (mucositis) and deeper inflammation (peri-implantitis with marginal bone loss) with features associated with implant position (three-dimensional position of the implant platform) and the consequent shape of the crown contour and emergence profile. The hypothesis is that implant position determines the shape of the crown, which in turn determines the persistence of a local microbial biofilm as unfavourable crown contours hamper oral hygiene efforts aimed at biofilm control/removal. The persistence of a biofilm will cause soft tissue inflammation, which may lead to microbial dysbiosis and disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in bleeding on probing

    Peri-implant probing will be performed with light (∼25 g) force using UNC-15 periodontal probe, at six sites (mesio- buccal, buccal, disto-buccal, mesio-lingual, lingual, disto-lingual) per implant. At each site, presence of bleeding will be recorded.

    Measured: Changes over six months, 1, 2, and 3 years after final crown insertion.

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Changes in cytokine level in peri-implant crevicular fluid

    Peri-implant crevicular fluid will be collected and level of inflammatory cytokines will be analyzed using commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) kits.

    Measured: Changes over six months, 1, 2, and 3 years after final crown insertion.

  2. Changes in composition of microbiome in sub-gingival plaque sample

    Sub-gingival plaque sample will be collected. Composition of microbiome in sub-gingival plaque samples will be assessed by 16sRNA technique.

    Measured: Changes over six months, 1, 2, and 3 years after final crown insertion.

  3. Marginal bone level change

    Marginal bone level change will be measured on periapical radiograph using parallel technique. The uppermost end of bone-to-implant contact will be recorded as marginal bone level. Implant will be used as reference.

    Measured: Chenges over Six months, 1, 2, and 3 years after final crown insertion.

  4. Buccal soft tissue level change

    Intra-oral scan taken at different follow-up time points will be superimposed. Buccal soft tissue level will be recorded and the change will be measured.

    Measured: Changes over six months, 1, 2, and 3 years after final crown insertion.

  5. Papilla height change

    Intra-oral scan taken at different follow-up time points will be superimposed. Papilla height will be recorded and the change will be measured.

    Measured: Changes over six months, 1, 2, and 3 years after final crown insertion.
