About this study

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of surface characteristics and geometric design on marginal bone loss and bone quality in dental implants.

Materials and Methods: A total of 378 implants from 114 patients were evaluated in this study using panoramic and periapical radiographs. Implants were categorized into 19 subgroups according to the jaw where they were placed, length, diameter, surface preparation, type of prosthetic superstructure, and neck design. Radiological evaluations were conducted based on radiographs obtained at the time of implant placement and 3 months after prosthetic loading. After obtaining measurements of marginal bone loss and fractal analysis data, the significance of differences between groups was statistically evaluated.

What participants receive

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

  • dental implantOther

    Digital panoramic radiographs taken during the patients' treatment periods (T0, T1) were used in the study. Measurements of marginal bone levels on radiographs were performed using the "Image J" software. The distance between the most coronal part of the implant neck and the most apical part of the defect caused by marginal bone loss was measured.

    Fractal analysis (FA) was conducted on panoramic radiographs (OPG) with a size of 2952x1435 pixels and a depth of 32 bits. FA on these radiographs at T0 and T1 times was performed using the box counting method determined by White and Rudolp with the ImageJ program(23).

What is being measured

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

  1. Marginal Bone Loss around different dental implants

    Number of Participants: 114 Number of Dental Implants: 378

    Implants will be categorized into 19 subgroups according to the jaw where they were placed, length, diameter, surface preparation, type of prosthetic superstructure, and neck design. Radiological evaluations will be conducted based on radiographs obtained at the time of implant placement and 3 months after prosthetic loading.

    The distance between the most coronal part of the implant neck and the most apical part of the defect caused by marginal bone loss(millimeters) will be measured. The magnification ratio will be calculated by comparing the previously recorded implant length with the length measured on the software, allowing the determination of the actual value of MBL.

    Measured: 180 days

  2. Fractal values around dental implant radiographs

    A total of 378 implants from 114 patients will be evaluated in this study using panoramic and periapical radiographs. Implants will be categorized into 19 subgroups according to the jaw where they were placed, length, diameter, surface preparation, type of prosthetic superstructure, and neck design. Radiological evaluations will be conducted based on radiographs obtained at the time of implant placement and 3 months after prosthetic loading. And measurement pre op post op fractal values

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing dental implant in people with Implant Infection and Peri-Implantitis, run by Recep Tayyip Erdogan University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 5 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 28 Jan 2025. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Marginal Bone Loss around different dental implants (time frame: 180 days). 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 28 Jan 2025.
