Trial summary

The aim of this study was to compare the prosthetic maintenance requirements between implant-retained ball overdentures versus fixed screw- retained implant prosthesis. Clinical and radiographic changes in peri-implant tissue with using PGE2 as a PICF biomarker were also evaluated. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prosthetic Maintenance and Peri- Implant Tissues Conditions of Fixed Screw- Retained Implant Prosthesis Versus Implant-Retained Ball Overdentures: A Randomized Clinical Trial

The aim of this study was to compare the prosthetic maintenance requirements between implant-retained ball overdentures versus fixed screw- retained implant prosthesis. Clinical and radiographic changes in peri-implant tissue with using PGE2 as a PICF biomarker were also evaluated. Selected patients had been divided into two groups:

  1. Group (I): twenty seven patients had received implant-Supported ball over dentures.
  2. Group (II): twenty-seven patients had received screw retained restorations Interventions and study procedures

Surgical and prosthetic procedures:

Surgical Procedures A radiopaque radiographic stent was formed and was positioned in the patient's mouth during cone beam scanning. Four implants were planned with two virtual replicas, in the place of the lateral incisor and the second premolar.

The stent was fabricated. After the healing period of four months finished, the patients were recalled and the super structure was fabricated according to the type of restoration Follow-up During the 12 months follow-up period, prosthodontic complications were recorded and calculated.

Postoperative care Along with a conventional oral hygiene assessment and functional checkup, follow up visits were scheduled every 6 months and up to 12 months total follow up period.

Clinical soft tissue measurements which include plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), and PPD were measured at the mid-facial, mid-lingual, mid-mesial, and mid-distal aspects of each fixture using a graduated plastic probe to the nearest 0.5 mm. These clinical measurements were recorded after prosthesis delivery, 6 and 12 months postoperatively. The peri-implant marginal bone loss (MBL) was assessed radiographically after prosthesis delivery, 6 and 12 months postoperatively.

  • Collection of peri-implant crevicular fluid (PICF) samples: PICF was collected.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Screw retained restoration and implant-retained ball overdentures in people with Prosthesis and Implant Dentistry, run by Kafrelsheikh University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jan 2021. 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 Egypt. 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?

Rate of prosthetic complications (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 13 Jan 2021.
