Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 45 to 70 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Free from any systemic disease.
  • Free from any medical or surgical conditions that cause dysphagia (swallowing problems).
  • A sufficient residual alveolar bone quantity (height and width). This was verified by a CT scan using cone-beam computed tomography for each patient.
  • All patients had sufficient bone either D2 or D3 by measuring the Hounsfield unit on CBCT scan.
  • Residual ridges are covered by firm healthy mucosa.
  • Class I maxilla-mandibular relationship.
  • sufficient inter-arch space and restorative space for locator retained mandibular overdenture.

Who cannot join

  • Patient with absolute contraindications for implant placement such as active cancer, immunosuppression, bleeding issues, and metabolic diseases that directly affect the bone such as osteoporosis, and hyperparathyroidism.
  • Patients with relative contraindication: history of para functional habits such as bruxism, clenching, and bad habits such as smoking and alcoholism, uncontrolled diabetic patients.
  • Patients with local contraindications for implant placement due to localized bone defects.
  • Non-cooperative patients who don't follow instructions during and after the operation.

About this study

Official title: Swallowing Dynamic of Two Implant Versus Single Implant Retained Mandibular Overdentures

This Randomized clinical study was conducted to compare between two-implant versus single implant-retained mandibular overdenture regarding swallowing dynamic using The Test of Mastication and Swallowing Solids (TOMASS) and the Timed Water Swallow Test (TWST)

Read the detailed description

There are lack of studies comparing single and two implant-retained mandibular overdentures regarding swallowing dynamic. This Randomized clinical study aimed to compare the effect of two treatment modalities of mandibular implant over denture on the swallowing dynamic.

8 completely edentulous patients were selected from the Out-Patient Clinic of Prosthodontics' Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University seeking prosthetic rehabilitation. All patients were randomly distributed into two equal groups; Group I (Patients received two-implant mandibular overdenture with locator attachment) and Group II ( Patients received single implant mandibular overdenture with locator attachment) All subjects received a newly carefully constructed complete dentures and then the lower dentures were changed into mandibular implant retained overdentures using locator attachments by placing two implants on the mandibular canine regions for group I and single midline implant for group II.

Swallowing dynamic was evaluated after 3 months of complete denture insertion for both groups. After mandibular overdenture insertion swallowing dynamic was evaluated 2 weeks after insertion and three months after overdenture insertion for both groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. Swallowing Dynamic Of Two Implant Versus Single Implant Retained Mandibular Overdentures

    Evaluation of swallowing dynamic of both groups was done by The Test of Mastication and Swallowing Solids (TOMASS) to measure (number of swallows,number of chews,and total time)

    Measured: The evaluation of swallowing by TOMASS for(no swallows, no of chews,and total time)was done after 3 months (3M-CD) of CD insertion, three months (3M-OD) after overdenture insertion.

  2. Swallowing Dynamic Of Two Implant Versus Single Implant Retained Mandibular Overdentures

    swallowing dynamic of both groups was evaluated by the Timed Water Swallow Test (TWST) to measure (time per swallow, volume per swallow,and swallowing capcity)

    Measured: The evaluation of swallowing by TWST for (time per swallow, volume per swallow, and swallowing capcity) was done after 3 months (3M-CD) of CD insertion, three months (3M-OD) after overdenture insertion.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Implant retained mandibular overdenture in people with Swallowing, run by Mansoura University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 7 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: 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 Egypt. 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?

Swallowing Dynamic Of Two Implant Versus Single Implant Retained Mandibular Overdentures (time frame: The evaluation of swallowing by TOMASS for(no swallows, no of chews,and total time)was done after 3 months (3M-CD) of CD insertion, three months (3M-OD) after overdenture insertion.). 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.
