  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Ankylos dental implants.

3 Ankylos dental implants placed in platform switch configuration on one side of the mandible in support of a fixed restoration.

A total number of 19 subjects participated in this randomized, split mouth, masked, prospective, open, comparison, monocenter study. Participants were subjects with an edentulous mandible who recieved 3 implants on each side which were splinted for the delivery of a fixed prosthesis.

ANKYLOS Implant System vs Certain PREVAIL Implant
Active Comparator: 3i Prevail dental implants.

Three 3i Prevail dental implants placed on the opposite side of the mandible from the Ankylos implants in support of fixed dental restoration.

After a baseline phase of 1 month the mandible sides of subjects were randomly assigned to one of the 2 parallel treatment groups: one side received ANKYLOS plus implants. The contralateral sde recieved Certain PREVAIL Implants. Abutments were installed and loaded immediately by a fixed temporary bridge. After 3 months the final prosthesis was incorporated.
