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

Guided implant surgery was used in dental implant surgery to achieve accuracy and an overall predictability. Successful guided implant workflow depends on 3-dimensional image acquisition and precise model fabrication.

Artificial intelligence application in implant dentistry has ushered in a new era of precision and efficiency demonstrating improved implant survival rates and patient satisfaction and enhance the integration of technologies with digital workflows.

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

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.

Experimental: control group
conventional socket shield with conventional simultaneous implant placement
Procedure: free-hand socket shield
Immediate Implant Placement Using Socket Shield Technique with autogenous whole tooth graft after immediate implantation using Socket Shield Technique, the palatal root portion and the decoronated crown will be converted to autogenous whole tooth graft and used for grafting the defect between the socket shield and the implant fixture
Other Names:
  • Elamrousy Novel Approach of Socket Shield Technique
Experimental: study group
computer guided implant placement combined with artificial intelligence-assisted socket shield.
Procedure: AI/guided socket shield

The patient specific guides will be placed at the pre-planned positions at the labial buccal mucosa.

using artificial intelligence the socket shield approach will be planned to keep the buccal shield and using surgical guide the shield will be preciesly prepared followed by guided implant placement and whole tooth grafting of the jumping gap

Other Names:
  • AI/guided Elamrousy Novel Approach of Socket Shield Technique

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
Midfacial Mucosal Alterations
Time Frame: 24-month.
digital intraoral scans were recorded. To quantify the vertical changes in the soft tissues around implants buccally, the collected scans were digitally superimposed via matching Gom inspect software
24-month.
Stability Quotient of dental implant
Time Frame: 24-month.
Osstell TM was used to record the primary stability.ISQ, or Implant Stability Quotient, is a scale from 1 to 100 and is a measure of the stability of an implant. The ISQ scale has a non-linear correlation to micro mobility. With more than 1400 scientific references, investigators now know that high stability means >70 ISQ, between 60-69 is medium stability and < 60 ISQ is considered as low stability
24-month.
pink esthetic score
Time Frame: 24-month.
The pink esthetic score (PES) evaluates the esthetic outcome of soft tissue around implant-supported single crowns in the anterior zone by awarding seven points for the mesial and distal papilla, soft-tissue level, soft-tissue contour, soft-tissue color, soft-tissue texture, and alveolar process deficiency.Using a 0-1-2 scoring system, 0 being the lowest, 2 being the highest value, the maximum achievable PES was 14
24-month.
facial marginal bone level
Time Frame: 24-month
Utilizing CBCT sagittal sections, the BMBL was evaluated by computerized analysis. Navigation was done on the multiplanar display until the implant's precise same-view location was established on the reformatted cross-sectional section and panoramic view.
24-month
