Trial summary

. There is little information on the degree of crestal bone loss around 4 inter-foraminal implant-retained mandibular overdentures (OVDs) and the amount of bone remodelling on the anterior maxilla and posterior mandibule on long-term function, particularly with different distributions.

About this study

Official title: Ten Years Retrospective Study of 4 LOCATOR Attachment of Mandibular Implant Retained Overdenture With 2 Different Distributions.

. There is little information on the degree of crestal bone loss around 4 inter-foraminal implant-retained mandibular overdentures (OVDs) and the amount of bone remodelling on the anterior maxilla and posterior mandibule on long-term function, particularly with different distributions.

Read the detailed description

Numerous studies confirm the successful use of implants to retain prostheses in the edentulous atrophic mandible. It has been recommended by some authors that clinicians should use 3 or 4 implants in situations that require increased retention, such as high muscle attachment or prominent mylohyoid ridge. LOCATOR attachment as a retentive component has several advantages over other systems, Such as: dual retention through both external and internal mating surfaces, a self-aligning feature which is helpful in guiding patients when placing their denture. There is little information on the degree of crestal bone loss around 4 inter-foraminal implant-retained mandibular overdentures (OVDs) and the amount of bone remodelling on the anterior maxilla and posterior mandibule on long-term function, particularly with different distributions.

What participants receive

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

  • observationOther

    To compare the effect of the mandibular implant retained OVD using quadrilateral distribution (QD) versus linear distribution (LD) on posterior mandibular ridge resorption (PMandRR), anterior maxillary ridge resorption (AMaxRR), and changes to the crestal bone level around implants after 10 years of function.

What is being measured

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

  1. Posterior mandibular ridge resorption (PMandRR)

    The amount of PMandRR will be assessed using posterior area index on a panoramic x-ray which use specific landmarkds.

    Measured: 10 years retrospective study

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Anterior maxillary ridge resorption (AMaxRR)

    The amount of PMandRR will be assessed using anterior area index on a panoramic x-ray, which use specific landmarks.

    Measured: 10 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bone Resorption, run by Mohamed Elsawy 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 2023. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Mohammed E Sawy, PhD (+201061314522, Dr_sawy@windowslive.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Posterior mandibular ridge resorption (PMandRR) (time frame: 10 years retrospective study). 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 23 Oct 2023.
