April 19, 2022 updated by: Baoxin Huang, Sun Yat-sen University

Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of Marginal Bone Changes Around Platform-switching Implants Placed in Crestal or Subcrestal Positions: a Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

The objective of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate changes in marginal bone levels and soft tissue dimensions around implants placed with the IAI at different positions in relation to the alveolar crest

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Active, not recruiting

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The objective of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate changes in marginal bone levels and soft tissue dimensions around implants placed with the IAI at different positions in relation to the alveolar crest. Subjects will be included with the absence of 2-4 teeth in the posterior region of the maxilla or mandibular. Twenty patients will be recruited. Two implant placement depths, equicrestal and subcrestal, were randomly assigned to two sites of each patient with a predefined randomization tables (one crestal implant and one subcrestal implant). Patients will be recalled for oral hygiene maintenance and prosthetic controls at 1year, 3 years, 5 years after final restoration.

Enrollment (Anticipated)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 70 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

  3. Periodontally healthy.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Systemic diseases that may affect bone and soft tissue healing, such as diabetes, osteoporosis, Paget's disease, and patients with cancer;

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Crestal
Implants were placed with the implant-abutment interface(IAI) at the level of the the alveolar ridge
Procedure: Crestal
Subjects will be included with the absence of 2-4 teeth in the posterior region of the maxilla or mandibular. Twenty patients will be recruited. Two implant placement depths, equicrestal and subcrestal, were randomly assigned to two sites of each patient with a predefined randomization tables (one crestal implant and one subcrestal implant).
Experimental: Subcrestal
Implants were placed with the implant-abutment interface(IAI) 1 mm below the level of the alveolar ridge
Procedure: Subcrestal
Subjects will be included with the absence of 2-4 teeth in the posterior region of the maxilla or mandibular. Twenty patients will be recruited. Two implant placement depths, equicrestal and subcrestal, were randomly assigned to two sites of each patient with a predefined randomization tables (one crestal implant and one subcrestal implant).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Marginal bone loss(MBL)
Time Frame: Change from baseline up to 5 years after implantation
Baseline will be recorded at the time of implantation. Margin bone loss(MBL) will be recorded at 0 day, 4 months, 1 year and 3 years after implant placement.
Change from baseline up to 5 years after implantation

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
