NCT06460103

Brief Summary

Although bone grafting at the same time as the placement of dental implants is a common procedure in implantology, there are currently no data on the influence of different types of implant surfaces on bone healing, which is crucial for implant stability. The primary objective of this study is to assess if implant surface properties, i.e. hydrophilicity, affect the osseointegration of the implant in simultaneously augmented bone. The secondary objective is to assess if implant surface properties, i.e. surface hydrophilicity, may affect the quantity of newly formed bone in the implant in simultaneously augmented bone. Surface hydrophilicity modification is a well-adapted concept in dental implantology and is clinically well-established. In this prospective study, all participants will receive a bone graft after extraction. After randomization, one group will receive a provisional SLA surface implant and another group will receive a provisional SLActive surface implant. The same standard surgical procedure will be performed for both groups when the definitive implant will be placed. The study will run for a total of 3 year, and 35 patients per group will be included. The Straumann SLA and SLActive implants, Maxgraft allograft and collprotect collagen membranes used in this study are all approved products on the Swiss market.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Bone-to-Implant Contact (BIC)

    The cross-sectional implant perimeter percentage in direct contact with newly formed bone over the total cross-sectional implant perimeter. Only the perimeter in contact with augmented bone will be considered for measuring this parameter.

    3 weeks after implant placement

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Percentage of newly formed bone area

    3 weeks after implant placement

  • Graft particle area

    3 weeks after implant placement

  • Assessment of the tissue inflammatory response

    3 weeks after implant placement

  • Assessment of the healing response

    3 weeks after implant placement

Study Arms (2)

"Straumann® Bone Level Tapered SLActive®" mini-implant (hydrophilic surface)

EXPERIMENTAL

Tooth extraction + "Straumann® Bone Level Tapered, SLActive®" mini-implant placement + bone augmentation (bone graft "maxgraft® cortico-cancellous granules 0.5-2.0mm" and dental membrane "collprotect®membrane")

Device: Placement of a "Straumann® Bone Level Tapered implant SLActive®" (hydrophilic surface)

"Straumann® Bone Level Tapered implants SLA®" mini-implant (hydrophobic surface)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Tooth extraction + "Straumann® Bone Level Tapered , SLA®" mini-implant placement + bone augmentation (bone graft "maxgraft® cortico-cancellous granules 0.5-2.0mm" and dental membrane "collprotect®membrane")

Device: Placement of a "Straumann® Bone Level Tapered implant SLA®" (hydrophobic surface)

Interventions

Immediately after tooth extraction, patients will receive a "Straumann® Bone Level Tapered SLActive®" mini-implant at the ideal prosthetic position of the final implant, and bone augmentation using bone graft "maxgraft® " and dental membrane "collprotect®membrane". The mini-implant will be removed as a core trephine biopsy; the resulting osteotomies will be fine-prepared, and the final permanent implant will be placed after a healing period of 3 weeks post-augmentation.

Treatment blinding will not be possible as both device types, i.e. test and control implants, can be easily visually differentiated during handling and implantation. Test and control groups will be blinded for evaluation and statistical analysis and performed by independent laboratories.
