NCT07077915 | Enrolling By Invitation DMC

• 1 other identifier: 2025-H-0162-D-M-0696
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 24
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

Aim of the study is to analyze and compare the characteristic differences occurring in the surrounding bone in an immediate implant placed by osseodensification to immediate implants placed with the conventional technique

Conditions

Immediate Dental Implant Placement; Conventional Drilling Technique; Osseodensification Drilling Technique

Keywords

immediate dental implant; immediate dental implant with bone graft; osseodensification; conventional drilling; densah burs

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Interradicular bone width

  The width of the interradicular bone in the interradicular septum will be measured immediately before and after drilling is performed during surgery. Measurements will be taken using a UNC-15 periodontal probe and recorded in millimeters (mm).

  Intraoperative (at time of surgery)

• Dental implant stability

  Implant stability will be assessed using the Osstell device, which uses resonance frequency analysis to calculate an Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ). ISQ values range from 1 to 100, with higher values indicating greater implant stability.

  up to 4 months after dental implant placement

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Marginal Bone Level

  up to 7 months after the implantation

• Bone density

  up to 7 months after dental implant placement

Study Arms (2)

Osseodensification burs

EXPERIMENTAL

Other: Osseodensification burs

Conventional Burs

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Other: Conventional burs

Interventions

Osseodensification burs OTHER

Densah burs are osseodensification burs used to condense bone and prepare dental implant site, unlike conventional technique which cuts and removes the bone

Osseodensification burs

Conventional burs OTHER

Preparation of dental implant site by the Conventional technique using Conventional burs that are subtractive

Conventional Burs
