About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Implant Stability and Local Bone Formation at Endosseous Dental Implants With a Titanium Porous Oxide Surface Adsorbed With rhBMP-2

The purpose of the study is to evaluate implant stability and stimulate clinically relevant horizontal and vertical new bone formation around Nobel Biocare's Bone Inductive Implant.

Read the detailed description

Common complications encountered when replacing missing teeth with Endosseous dental implants include lack of adequate bone volume limiting the possibility of optimal patient treatment. Typical limitations include severely resorbed alveolar ridges (height and width) in patients following long-term edentulism. In other cases, the alveolar ridge may have become compromised due to advanced periodontal disease, traumatic extractions, and other trauma disallowing Endosseous dental implant placement to meet aesthetic and functional demands. Conversely, placing Endosseous dental implants to optimally meet aesthetic and functional demands in sites exhibiting alveolar ridge aberrations often results in partial exposure of the Endosseous dental implant bone-anchoring surface. In some cases clinicians have attempted to overcome the deficient bone volume by augmenting the anticipated Endosseous dental implant site using bone biomaterials, commonly originating from human or animal cadaveric sources, or synthetic biomaterials. The biomaterials have been used alone and in combinations including autologous bone grafts. Non-resorbable and bioresorbable barrier devices have been used to prevent dislocation of implanted biomaterials. The ability of the Bone Inductive Implant to form new bone above the level of the resorbed alveolar ridge to immerse the exposed portion of the Endosseous dental implant in bone (Treatment group 1) and the ability of the Bone Inductive Implant to induce bone formation around stable Endosseous dental implants placed into tooth extraction sockets (Treatment group 2) without the use of bone grafts, bone biomaterials, or barrier devices will be assessed.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Primary Endpoint Was to Assess Implant Stability of the Implants( 4 Patients in Two Groups With a Total of 8 Implants) at Baseline and After 3 Months of Submerged Healing and After 6 Months of Prosthetic Loading

    The following success criteria for the primary endpoint have been adopted and apply to both treatment groups. 1.The implant stability (ISQ) was recorded by means of resonance frequency analysis (RFA) at implant insertion, 3 months and after 6 months of loading 2. radiographic and computed tomography analyses shall not show any signs of peri-implant radiolucency at the 3 and 6 month time point 3. implant stability after 3 months shall allow tightening to 35Ncm without implant rotation by using a torque wrench

    Measured: Implant insertion, 3 months, 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Participants Showing Bone Growth With rhBMP-2 (15 and 30 µg Per Implant)

    The secondary endpoint of the study was to assess the minimum dose of rhBMP2 eliciting bone growth.The secondary endpoint was assessed by measuring using a probe the quantity of any newly formed bone 1.in the group where implants were placed in the supra alveolar position the treatment is successful if the bone exceeds 1.5 mm above the initial alveolar bone level in all measured points 1. in the group where implants were placed in extraction sockets the treatment is successful if the gap between the implant body and the extraction socket is filled with Bone.

    Safety dose used:- In the dog model; seroma formation was extensive with higher rhBMP-2 concentrations (3.0 and 4.0 mg/mL.Seromas was also significant in the dog model for the 0.75 and 1.5 mg/mL rhBMP-2 concentrations, hence a minimum dose of 15 and 30 µg per implants was chosen)

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nobel Replace Tapered Groovy in people with Alveolar Ridge Abnormality, run by Nobel Biocare at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 May 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary Endpoint Was to Assess Implant Stability of the Implants( 4 Patients in Two Groups With a Total of 8 Implants) at Baseline and After 3 Months of Submerged Healing and After 6 Months of Prosthetic Loading (time frame: Implant insertion, 3 months, 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00422279, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
