About this study

Official title: Three-dimensional Positional Accuracy of Dental Implant Placement Using a Haptic and Machine Vision Controlled Collaborative Surgery Robot: a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

For free hand dental implant placement, a key difficulty is to accurately control the position. Improving precision of dental implant placement is considered important for safety and efficacy of tooth replacement with dental implants. The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the positional implant accuracy, and patient reported outcomes comparing two methods of implant placement: the use of a robotic assisted surgery and freehand surgery. Patients requiring single tooth replacement with a dental implant will be digitally planned using a CBCT and an intraoral digital scan. Subjects will be randomized to one of the two treatment modalities based on the plan. The accuracy of placement will be assessed evaluating the difference between the planned and the actual position using a CBCT immediately after surgery. Subjects will be followed up for one year to assess both patient reported and professional outcomes.

Read the detailed description

For free hand dental implant placement, a key difficulty is to accurately control the position. Improving precision of dental implant placement is considered important for safety and efficacy of tooth replacement with dental implants. In particular, more precise implant placement is expected to yield a better restoration both in terms of aesthetics and ability for self-performed oral hygiene and thus prevention of peri-implant diseases. The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the positional implant accuracy, and patient reported outcomes comparing two methods of implant placement: the use of a robotic assisted surgery and freehand surgery. Patients requiring single tooth replacement with a dental implant will be digitally planned using a CBCT and an intraoral digital scan. Subjects will be randomized to one of the two treatment modalities based on the plan. The accuracy of placement will be assessed evaluating the difference between the planned and the actual position using a CBCT immediately after surgery. Subjects will be followed up for one year to assess both patient reported and professional outcomes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Implant positional accuracy

    Implant accuracy will be measured as distance discrepancy at implant platform and implant apex, and angular discrepancy of implant axis between the digital plan and the actual position of the implant assessed digitally at the end of the procedure. Pre- and post-operative CBCT will be used for measurement.

    Measured: Immediately after surgery

  2. Peri-implant soft tissue health

    Bleeding on probing and probing depth will be recorded, by probing gently around implant-supported restoration at six points: mesial-buccal, mid-buccal, distal-buccal, mesial-lingual, mid-lingual, and distal-lingual, using UNC-15 periodontal probe. This is defined according to the peri-implant health case definition by Berglundh et al 2017 and the ID-COSM international consensus conference

    Measured: 12 month follow-up

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Local integrity of the alveolar bone

    The thickness of the buccal and lingual bone plates 1, 3, and 5 mm apical to the implant platform on post-surgery CBCT

    Measured: Immediately after surgery

  2. Discomfort perception

    Patient discomfort perception during surgery will be recorded using visual analogue scale (VAS with range from 0 to 10 with 10 being the highest possible pain experience)

    Measured: During surgery

  3. Pain perception

    Patient pain perception after surgery will be recorded using visual analogue scale (VAS with range from 0 to 10 with 10 being the highest possible pain experience) .

    Measured: immediately after surgery, and 1 to 7 days after surgery

  4. Esthetics of the restoration

    Assessed using the PES-WES scale as reported by Belser et al.with the scale ranging from 0 to 14 (worst to best)

    Measured: 12-months follow-up after delivery of crown

  5. Cytokine concentrations in PISF

    Cytokine concentration in peri-implant sulcus fluid assesed by MULTIPLEX ELISA as concentrations of IL-1, TNF, IL-6 with lower concentrations reflecting less local inflammation

    Measured: 12-months follow-up after delivery of crown

  6. Submarginal microbiome

    16S assessment of microbiome diversity (Shannon index) with greater diversity representing a more stable microbiome

    Measured: 12-months follow-up after delivery of crown

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Robot system and Freehand surgery in people with Dental Implant, run by Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University at 1 site in China.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Sep 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 China. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

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 positional accuracy (time frame: Immediately after surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 7 Sep 2023.
