Active clinical trials for "Mouth, Edentulous"

The biggest challenge of oral rehabilitation is the replacement of lost structures and the restoration of their function and esthetics, focusing on matching a healthy tooth. Traditional complete dentures, implant (retained, supported) overdentures, and complete implant-supported fixed prostheses are all alternatives to the rehabilitation of the mandibular arch. The aim of this study was to compare BioHPP used as a skeletal substructure for hybrid (implant fixed, detachable) prostheses versus BioHPP bar supporting and retaining by using radiographic tracing to the marginal bone height changes around the implants, patient satisfaction can be improved.

comparing retention and patient satisfaction of implant-supported mandibular overdentures retained by conventional nylon clip and metal housings for ball attachments versus PEEK clip and housings

Patients with an edentulous mandible restored with implants who have participated in the core study CR 04/07 will be recruited for this extension study. No further interventions will be made for this extension study other than a clinical follow-up examination and questionnaires. Patients will not receive an investigational treatment in this study. Patients will be followed at 5 to 10 years from the date of the original implant loading

The aim of this study is to gather clinical data related to the use of Plastalgin and Plastalgin Fast, in order to comply with the new medical device regulation. The target population for this study is the same as the intended population specified in the study device's instructions for use: children from 5 years old and adults. Collection, recording, and reporting of data will be accurate and will ensure the privacy, health, and welfare of participating patients during and after the study

This study examines the effects of prosthetic treatment options applied to edentulous geriatric individuals who applied to Marmara University Faculty of Dentistry on chewing function, food consumption status, malnutrition status and oral health-related quality of life.

1. Hypothesis/Specific aims The aim of the present study proposal is to validate an implant treatment concept in the edentulous upper maxilla using four implants-supported locators abutments to retain removable prosthesis. Specific aims: The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the implant and prosthodontics success rates of the proposed implant treatment approach after a follow-up period of 1, 3 and 5 years as well as the biological and prosthodontics complications. The secondary objective is to assess the evolution of patient centered outcomes with the suggested treatment in the maxilla. Oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and patients' satisfaction relating to their prostheses will be considered. The third objective will be to compare the implant, prosthodontics and patient-centered outcomes according to the implant distribution; 4 anterior to maxillary sinus (ANT) versus 2 anterior implants and 2 implants in the maxillary tuberosity (POST). Hypothesis: Implant survival rate using this treatment concept is similar to restoration with implant-supported fixed prosthesis, based on published data. No difference of implant survival rates is found between ANT and POST implant distribution. Prosthodontics survival rate using the following treatment concept is similar to the ones found with a bar, based on published data. The ANT implant distribution causes fewer prosthodontics complications compared to the POST implant distribution. There is a significant improvement in OHRQoL and patient satisfaction compared to the baseline OHRQoL observed with a conventional removable denture. The levels of improvement OHRQoL and patient satisfaction are similar for ANT and POST implant distributions.

The aims of this clinical study conducted at a dental specialty clinic in Drammen, Norway are to assess the clinical outcomes of patients with an edentate upper jaw having been treated with a removable full prosthesis supported by 3 implants to restore function and aesthetics. Clinical variables beyond implant dimensions and intraoral location, such as recall routines, maintenance needs, patient satisfaction and quality of life, will also be appraised and contrasted with an aim to elucidate their association with clinical outcomes. Specific evaluation will be done with regard to the following outcome criteria: crestal bone levels and periodontal conditions around implants incidence rates of biological, technical, traumatic failures / complications related to implants incidence rates of biological, technical, mechanical, esthetic failures/complications with prosthesis and prosthetic components A secondary objective is to identify the different risk factors for biological failures / complications, including the influence of medical conditions and tobacco use.

As part of post-marketing clinical follow-up, BIOTECH DENTAL sets up the collection and evaluation of clinical data proactively with the aim of confirming the safety, performance as well as the constantly acceptable nature of the risks identified and of detecting potential emerging risks with the use of "Kontact Perio Level" implants in everyday practice.

The purposes of this study are : (first) to evaluate comparatively the effectiveness of 2 HA-based biomaterials when used for socket preservation with Buccal Plate Augmentation technique; (second) to evaluate clinical outcomes of socket preservation procedures performed using the Buccal Plate Augmentation technique.

A questionnaire based study to investigate the effectiveness of an Augmented Reality App in the selection of teeth for dentures. Patients dentists and dental technicians are asked to assess the effectiveness of the App in structured questionnaires.
