Different loading strategies for mandibular 2-implant overdentures using different systems:A randomized controlled clincial trial

A Randomized Controlled Clincial Trial on Different Loading Strategies using 2-implant Overdentures to Resolve Complete Tooth Loss in the Mandible.

Sponsor

NobelBiocare, Australia ; Southern Implants South Africa; ITI Research Foundation, Switzerland

Enrollment

106 participants

Start Date

Feb 4, 1999

Study Type

Interventional

Conditions

Total tooth loss - edentulism

Summary

Early loading with mandibular overdentures at 2 or 6 weeks after implant placement is being evaluated to see if it is an effective treatment modality for edentulous patients to improve their qaulity of life.

Eligibility

Sex: Both males and females

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study compares different ways of loading (putting teeth on) dental implants placed in the lower jaw to support overdentures. People who have no teeth and have difficulty with their complete dentures may be eligible. Participants would receive two implants in the front of the lower jaw and be assigned to different timing strategies for attaching the overdenture.

This summary was AI-generated to explain the trial in plain language. It is not medical advice. Always discuss eligibility with your doctor before enrolling in a clinical trial.
