Trial Outcomes & Findings for Effect of Implant Thread Design on Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) in Early Healing Period (NCT NCT02701387)

NCT ID: NCT02701387

Last Updated: 2016-12-29

Results Overview

Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) is a scale from 1 to 100, to quantify implant stability in bone (higher values mean higher stability). ISQ numerical values are generated by applying resonance frequency analysis (RFA) or sound waves through a specialized peg attached to the implant. Data were combined to reduce the number of intervals for analysis purposes. Data from intervals were combined as follows: Tr0 = T0 (baseline) Tr1 = Average of follow-up week 1 (T1) and follow-up week 2 (T2) Tr2 = Average of follow-up week 3 (T3) and follow-up week 4 (T4) Tr3 = Average of follow-up week 5 (T5) and follow-up week 6 (T6) Tr4 = Average of follow-up week 7 (T7) and follow-up week 8 (T8)

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline (T0) and weekly thereafter for 8 weeks (T1-T8)

Population: Seven participants, each missing at least two posterior teeth in the same arch, were enrolled, resulting in 10 matched pairs for analysis. Outcome was assessed per implant, not per individual participant;

Outcome measures

Outcome measures
Measure
AnyRidge Implant
n=10 implants
Experimental implant (Megagen AnyRidge dental implant) placed in a healed edentulous site to replace a missing tooth. Megagen AnyRidge dental implant: AnyRidge is an approved dental implant with a knife edge, thin thread design available in various thread widths (depth).
EZ Plus Implant
n=10 implants
Comparative implant (Megagen EZ Plus dental implant) placed in a healed edentulous site to replace a missing tooth. Megagen EZ Plus dental implant: EZ Plus is an approved dental implant with a standard thread design (width and depth) and that is comparable to many other dental implants currently available on the market.
