NCT03714139

Brief Summary

Twelve participants with edentulous alveolar crests in the distal portion of the arches will be included in the study. At least two implant sites will be identified in each patient and will be sub-prepared with drills or sonic instruments. One site will be used as a test and one as a control where experimental mini-implants will be installed. Reconstructive surgical procedures will be applied at the biopsy sites.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • bone to implant contact

    The linear distances between IS and B (IS-B) and CM and X (CM-X) were measured parallel to the long axis of the implant at both sides of the implant at a magnification of x100. Moreover, the amount of new bone, old bone, total bone (new + old bone = BIC%

    2 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Bone density

    2 months

Study Arms (2)

Immediate implant Loading

EXPERIMENTAL

Immediate loading is defined as the placement of the implant and immediate prosthetic restoration

Procedure: immediate loadingProcedure: non implant loading

non implant loading

NO INTERVENTION

there is not immediate prosthetic restoration

Interventions

The participants will be assigned to immediate or delayed functional loading groups. In each participant, edentulous areas with adequate thickness of the alveolar bone crest will be identified and at least two sites will be identified for implant installation. All implant recipient sites will be sub-prepared to allow good stability of the implants. Experimental mini-implants (Sweden \& Martina, Due Carrare, Padova, Italy), 3.5 mm in diameter and with an intraosseous portion of 4 mm in length will be installed. Immediate loading group - A prosthetic component will be applied over the trial implants. Impressions will be taken and a crown / bridge will be provided to patients in one day.

Also known as: implant surgery, prosthesis
Immediate implant Loading

Control implants will receive a healing screw and will remain unloaded
