About this study

The control of biofilm around implants is critical to the success of the implant rehabilitation of edentulous jaw with overdentures, and it is the dentist's duty to inform and guide patients, and keep their maintenance in order to prevent pathological processes that can lead to the implanted component loss.The aim of the present retrospective longitudinal study was to evaluate through clinical periodontal parameters and radiographic images in dental implants rehabilitated with overdentures installed seven years ago. individuals who underwent the installation of dental implants for making full implant-supported upper and lower mucus dentures in the Department of Implant Dentistry, Faculty of Dentistry, University of Santo Amaro, São Paulo, Brazil, in 2007. The periodontal parameters such as probing depth, plaque index, bleeding index and mobility as well as radiographic examination, are key to determine the correct diagnosis in dental implants. The control of biofilm around the implants seems to be a decisive factor for maintaining tissue health. We believe that the maintenance appointments are fundamental, but more studies should be conducted to elucidate microbial and immunological factors in implants placed and due for some time.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 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 30 Jul 2015. 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 Brazil. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

probing depth in implants (time frame: 7 years). 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 NCT02511977, which also lists 5 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Jul 2015.
