What is being measured

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

  1. Implant survival

    Survival of the implant

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Survival of the reconstructions

    Survival of prosthetic reconstruction

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Mesial and distal bone levels

    Peri-implant bone level changes

    Measured: 5 years

  2. ISQ values

    Measurement of ISQ values during implant surgery and at insertion of crown

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Soft tissue volume

    Intra-oral digital scans with volumetric software will be used for the soft tissue volume measurements.

    Measured: 5 years

  4. Technical and biological outcomes of the restorations

    Presence of fractures/chipping, retention loss, screw loosening

    Measured: 5 years

  5. Recording the need of GBR procedures

    Need of GBR procedure or not during surgery

    Measured: 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Timepoint of Implant placement of Bonelevel tapered implants and Material for tooth restoration - Lithiumdisilicate glass ceramic or zirconia in people with Tooth Loss and Dental Implant, Single-tooth, run by University of Geneva, Switzerland.

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 8 inclusion and 15 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 15 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

Implant survival (time frame: 5 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 15 Oct 2021.
