Keratized Mucosa in CG Implant Placement: CTG vs Flapless

Width of Keratinazed Mucosa in Immediately Loaded Posterior Implant Restorations Treated With Different Surgical Approaches: Randomized Clinical Study.


Sponsor

University of Milan

Enrollment

44 participants

Start Date

Oct 18, 2021

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The present study will evaluate the difference in terms of keratinazed mucosa (KM) in computer guided implant placement with immediate loading, comparing a flapless approach to flap surgery with connective tissue graft.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study compares two surgical techniques for placing dental implants in the back of the mouth: computer-guided implant placement with a connective tissue graft (CTG) versus computer-guided flapless implant placement (without a graft). The goal is to determine whether adding a tissue graft improves the long-term stability of the gum tissue around the implant. You may be eligible if: - You are 18 years or older - You are missing teeth in the posterior region (teeth 4–7, upper or lower) for at least 3 months - You have sufficient bone volume for standard implant placement without bone grafting - You have accepted participation and signed informed consent You may NOT be eligible if: - You require prolonged steroid use, have severe hemophilia, or are receiving intravenous bisphosphonates - You have a history of head and neck radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or kidney failure - You are pregnant or breastfeeding - You smoke more than 10 cigarettes per day or equivalent - You have uncontrolled diabetes or other endocrine disorders - You have local inflammation, untreated periodontitis, or active bone lesions - You have a history of bruxism (teeth grinding) affecting the implant site Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
