About this study

Patients in need for implant-supported restoration in maxillary posterior sites with insufficient residual bone height will be randomly allocated to two different arms. Crestal sinus lift with simultaneous implant placement will be performed in both groups.

Control group: crestal sinus lift with no adjunctive biomaterial; Test group: crestal sinus lift associated with xenogenic bone graft and collagen membrane; Six months after implant placement, implants will be loaded with definitive screw-retained prostheses.

Six months later, patients will be recalled for clinical and radiographic assessment.

Read the detailed description

Patients in need for implant-supported restoration in maxillary posterior sites with bone deficiencies will be randomly allocated to two different arms.

Full-mouth periodontal chart and standardized radiographs will be evaluated at the time of inclusion.

Crestal sinus lift with simultaneous implant placement will be performed in both groups.

Control group: crestal sinus lift with no adjunctive biomaterial; the healing abutment in this group is made up of PEEK (poly-ether-ether-ketone).

Test group: crestal sinus lift associated with xenogenic bone graft and collagen membrane; the healing abutment in this group is made up of titanium;

Resonance frequency analysis will be performed at the time of implant placement and at 1, 3, 6 months of follow-up.

Both healing abutment will be undersized: this characteristic will allow to harvest a 1mm-wide biopsy of the transmucosal tract at the end of the healing phase (6 months).

Six months after implant placement, impression will be taken and implants loaded with definitive screw-retained prostheses.

Six months later, patients will be recalled for clinical and radiographic assessment.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Transcrestal approach for sinus liftProcedure or surgery

    After surgical exposure of maxillary alveolar crest, implant site preparation and transcrestal detachment of Schneiderian's membrane will be performed. Thereafter implant will be placed, protruding in the maxillary sinus with its apical part.

  • Xenograft applicationProcedure or surgery

    Before implant placement, xenogenic collagen membrane and bone granules will be pushed under the Schneiderian's membrane through the surgical site.

What is being measured

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

  1. Complications rate

    amount of complications assessed at patient level

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Peri-implant bone stability

    the amount (mm) of crestal bone resorption after implant placement assessed through intraoral radiographs

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Implant stability quotient

    implant stability assessed by resonance frequency analysis

    Measured: baseline, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months

  3. Soft tissue inflammation

    percentage of peri-implant soft tissue affected by inflamed connective tissue

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Transcrestal approach for sinus lift and Xenograft application in people with Edentulous Jaw, run by University of Siena at 1 site in Italy.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Dec 2020. 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 Italy. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Nicola D Discepoli, Professor (3392491188, ndiscepoli@me.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complications rate (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 10 Dec 2020.
