About this study

Official title: Influence of High Insertion Torque and Type of Bone on Post-operative Pain and Survival Rate of Dental Implants

The objectives of this clinical study were to assess the effect of different ITs and bone types on POP levels and survival rates and to investigate the effect of different patient- and site-related factors on POP levels and survival rates.

Read the detailed description

This prospective clinical study included 230 patients treated with a single tapered screw implant (Bioinnovation Dental®, Brazil). The implants were placed using the appropriate burs with a final master drill of 3.5 or 4.5 mm in diameter by one senior oral surgeon. These implants were multi-threaded, and their surfaces were both sandblasted and acid etched. Of the 230 participants, 172 received a single 5 x 10-mm implant, and 58 received a 4 x 10-mm implant.

For the higher torque range (90 - 200 Ncm), the maximum IT was recorded with an electronic digital torque measuring device (Tohnichi BTGE200CN-G, Hitachi, Japan), while a different gauge (Tohnichi BTG90CN-S, Hitachi, Japan) was used for the lower torque range (10 - 90 Ncm). All implants were placed at the crestal level and closed with a cover screw, and the flap was then sutured with non-resorbable 4/0 nylon suture (Resorba® Germany).

Pain levels were recorded at day 1, 2 and 4 and at week 1, 2 and 3 after surgery using visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 "no pain" to 10 "worst pain ever. Implants were classified into 4 groups based on the IT value; Low: 60 implants (10-29 Ncm, mean=15 Ncm); Regular: 102 implants (30-50 Ncm, mean=42 Ncm); High: 47 implants (51-100 Ncm, mean=75 Ncm); and Very high: 21 implants (101-200 Ncm, mean=170 Ncm).

Implant survival was assessed clinically and radiographically at 3, 6, 12, 24 and 36 months. The criteria for implant success according to Buser et al, were no radiolucent zone around the implant, confirmed individual implant stability, and no suppuration, pain or ongoing pathologic processes. All implants that failed to fulfill these success criteria were regarded as failures.

The effect of IT, bone type, implant location, age, gender and smoking was measured with regression analysis. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed to calculate the overall implant survival probabilities. The level of statistical significance was set at p<0.05.

What participants receive

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

  • Implant insertionProcedure or surgery

    Also called Implant surgery

    All patients received a single Tapered Screw implant (Bioinnovation Dental®, Brazil). The implants were placed according to the manufacturer's instructions by using the appropriate burs with a final master drill of 3.5 or 4.5 mm in diameter by one senior oral surgeon. These implants were multi-threaded, and their surfaces were both sandblasted and acid etched. Of the 230 participants, 172 received a single 5 x 10-mm implant, and 58 received a 4 x 10-mm implant.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Pain levelExperimentalAfter implant placement, all participants were requested to record their pain level using the 10-cm visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 "no pain" to 10 "worst pain ever." The scale had no other markings along the line. Patients were asked to record their pain level after surgery, 24 hours after surgery, at day 2, day 4 and at week 1, week 2, and week 3.

What is being measured

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

  1. Post-operative pain

    Pain was assessed after surgery using the 10-cm visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 "no pain" to 10 "worst pain ever." The scale has no other markings along the line. Patients will be asked to record their pain level before surgery and after surgery, 24 hours after surgery, at day 2, day 4 and at week 1, week 2, and week 3.

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Survival rate of implants

    Implant survival was assessed clinically and radiographically at 3, 6, 12, 24 and 36 months. The criteria for implant success according to Buser et al, were no radiolucent zone around the implant, confirmed individual implant stability, and no suppuration, pain or ongoing pathologic processes (Buser et al., 1997). All implants that failed to fulfill these criteria were regarded as failures.

    Measured: 36 months

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?

Post-operative pain (time frame: 1 month). 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 NCT06412380, which also lists 10 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 25 Jul 2024.
