Official title
the Effects of 3 Loading Protocols on Dental Implant Stability in Healed Ridges
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This is a research study to test the clinical procedure and not the FDA approved medical device. This project will screen up to 80 volunteers to enroll 40 active subjects to receive a single tooth implant on an anterior (incisor/canine) or pre-molar tooth in the mandible or maxilla (no implants will be placed in molar sites). This 3 year research study will examine the clinical effects of loading regimens on roughened surfaced implants. The proposed research project will measure the changes in mucosal healing and maturation over a three year period following implant placement. The proposed research lays the foundation for improved health care by providing surgeons and restorative dentists with data for determining the relationship between implant healing, loading pattern and bone type. The rationale that underlies the investigation is that identification of the influences of timing of load on implant stability in varying bone types will allow routine, predictable use of early loading, which, in turn, will translate into more rapid health care, and improved psychosocial well-being of the patient. If these hypotheses are correct, these results are expected to provide evidence based research data to support early loading and immediate loading of single implants in sites of adequate bone volume, and density. In addition, it is expected that these results will fundamentally advance the field of implant dentistry and bioengineering by providing information on the principles of the bone density-mechanical environment-implant stability interaction.
