NCT05284461

Brief Summary

The sample was comprised by 10 patients in which 40 dental implants are placed in an atrophic maxilla. All the implants were connected to 4 types of transepithelial abutment: i.e: parallel anodized abutment(n=10); parallel mechanized abutmen(n=10)t, convergent anodized abutment(n=10); and convergent mechanized abutment (n=10) three months after insertion implants were extracted with the surrounding hard and soft tissues for the histological evaluation of the clinical performance.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Bone to implant contact

    It is a Percentage estimation of native bone in direct contact to implant determined by histological assessments (optical microscopy)

    3 months after healing

  • Peri-implant inflammation of the soft tissues

    Histological assessments as ordinal variables of the grade of inflammatory infiltrate (none, minor, major)according to standard guidelines.

    3 months after healing

  • Density of the peri-implant soft tissues

    Histological assessments as ordinal variables of the density of the collagen fibers (low, medium, high) according to standard guidelines.

    3 months after healing

Study Arms (4)

Mechanized parallel abutments

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Implants were immediately covered with this type of abutments after insertion. This is the most common procedure. It would be the gold standard

Device: dental implant with transepithelial abutments manufactured by Galimplant Dental System (Spain)

Anodized parallel abutments

EXPERIMENTAL

Implants were immediately covered with this kind of abutments after insertion. Only the surface treatment varies to the gold standard

Device: dental implant with transepithelial abutments manufactured by Galimplant Dental System (Spain)

Mechanized convergent abutments

EXPERIMENTAL

Implants were immediately covered with this kind of abutments after insertion. Only the geometry of the emergence profile varies with regards to the gold standard

Device: dental implant with transepithelial abutments manufactured by Galimplant Dental System (Spain)

Anodized convergent abutments

EXPERIMENTAL

Implants were immediately covered with this kind of abutments after insertion. Both the surface treatment and the geometry vary with regards to the gold standard

Device: dental implant with transepithelial abutments manufactured by Galimplant Dental System (Spain)

Interventions
