Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Implant Stability

    Implant stability will be evaluated using Osstell device based on resonance frequency analysis (ISQ values).

    -Immediately after impant placement -immediately after loading -3 months after loading - 6 months after loading

  • Hard Tissue (peri-implant bone)

    Marginal bone loss will be assessed using CBCT measured in mm.

    - Immediately Postoperative (baseline) - 3 months after loading. - 6 months after loading.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Soft Tissue

    At 6 months after loading.

  • Peri-implant probing depth

    At 6 months after loading.

Study Arms (3)

Study Group 1

EXPERIMENTAL

It included 20 patients who received UV treated dental implants placed in maxillary posterior region which were immediately loaded within 3 days of implant placement.

Procedure: Immediate loading of UV-photofunctionalized dental implants

Study Group 2

EXPERIMENTAL

It included 20 patients who received UV-treated dental implants in the maxillary posterior region, with early loading performed 4 weeks after implant placement.

Procedure: Early loading of UV-photofunctionalized dental implants

Study Group 3

EXPERIMENTAL

It included 20 patients who received UV treated dental implants placed in maxillary posterior region which were conventionally loaded after 3 months

Procedure: Conventional loading of UV-photofunctionalized dental implants

Interventions

Immediate loading of UV-photofunctionalized dental implants placed in the posterior maxilla.

Study Group 1

Early loading of UV-photofunctionalized dental implants placed in the posterior maxilla.

Study Group 2

Conventional loading of UV-photofunctionalized dental implants placed in the posterior maxilla

Study Group 3

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 60 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with missed single tooth or multiple teeth in posterior maxilla
  • Patients Free from any para-functional habits.
  • Patient with Adequate inter-arch relation and inter-occlusal space to accommodate the prosthetic restoration.
  • Patient with good oral hygiene.
  • Patients Willing to participate in the study's follow-up intervals.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with any local or systemic disease that absolutely contraindicate implant placement or surgery.
  • Pregnancy.
  • Patients with any pathological lesion or aggressive periodontal disease at the planned surgical site.
  • Patients on drugs that could affect bone healing process such as bisphosphonate.
  • Smokers.
  • Uncooperative patients.
