Bone Healing at Implants Installed in Sites Prepared Either With a Sonic Device or Drills

July 17, 2019 updated by: ARDEC Academy

Bone Healing at Implants Installed in Sites Prepared Either With a Sonic Device or Drills. A Split-mouth Histomorphometric Randomized Controlled Trial

The purpose was to evaluate histomorphometrically the early healing at implants installed in sites prepared with either a sonic device or conventional drills.

Detailed Description

Sixteen volunteer patients will be recruited. Two titanium mini-implants will be installed in the distal segments of the maxilla in recipient sites prepared with either a sonic device or conventional drills. Biopsies containing the mini-implants will be retrieved after 2 weeks in eight patients, and after 6 weeks in the other eight patients. Histomorphometric analyses will be performed

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Control Site -Drill site
The control sites (Drills) will be prepared with a lanceolate drill (FS 230, Sweden / Martina), with a maximum diameter of 2.3 mm,
Full-thickness muco-periosteal flaps will be elevated, and the alveolar bone exposed to prepare the bed for the implant installation
Other Names:
  • implant surgery, prosthesis
EXPERIMENTAL: Test site -sonic site
test sites will be prepared with conical diamond inserts of increasing diameter (SFS99.000.014 to SFS99.000.024, Komet-Brasseler-GmbH, Germany) mounted on a sonic-air surgical instrument
Full-thickness muco-periosteal flaps will be elevated, and the alveolar bone exposed to prepare the bed for the implant installation
Other Names:
  • implant surgery, prosthesis

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
New bone in contact with the implant surface
Time Frame: After 2 weeks to evaluate the healing prior to load with a prosthesis
The percentages of new bone in contact with the implant surface will be evaluated in the histomorphometric analysis
After 2 weeks to evaluate the healing prior to load with a prosthesis
New bone in contact with the implant surface
Time Frame: After 6 weeks, to evaluate the healing prior to load with a prosthesis
The percentages of new bone in contact with the implant surface will be evaluated in the histomorphometric analysis
After 6 weeks, to evaluate the healing prior to load with a prosthesis

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
