About this study

Official title: Immediate Versus Delayed Loading of Single Posterior Zirconia Implants: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

The main aim of the present study is to investigate implant success rate after 5 years of function of immediate (Test group; within 7 days of implant placement) versus delayed (Control group; 8 weeks after implant placement) loading of two-pieces zirconia implant, placed in pristine bone without bone regeneration. Implant success rate will be defined according to Buser's criteria. Secondary endpoints: Marginal bone level (MBL) evaluation by means of standardized radiographs; Clinical evaluation of biological (e.g. Plaque Index, PI; Probing Pocket Depth, PPD, Bleeding on Probing, BOP; suppuration upon probing/palpation) and prosthetic/technical complications; Clinical evaluation of soft tissue width, keratinized tissue, marginal and interproximal soft tissue recession; Patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) by questionnaire administration:

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Implant success rate according to Buser's criteria

    presence of subjective complaints related to the area of treatment; recurrent infections in the peri-implant region accompanied by suppuration; mobility of the implant fixture

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Zirconia implant in people with Dental Implant Failed and Peri-implant Mucositis, run by University of Milan at 1 site 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 8 inclusion and 13 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 May 2023. 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 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Implant success rate according to Buser's criteria (time frame: 5 years). 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 May 2023.
