Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the research is to evaluate the clinical outcome of short dental implants, characterized by a new macro-structural design and inserted in the upper or lower jaw in patients with reduced bone volume. The clinical outcomes will be compared for different surface treatments of implant neck and those of prosthetic components.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

machined collar

The arm will be constituted by healthy people, that need to be rehabilitated by dental implant placement.

A short implant (length 6mm; diameter 4.3) will be inserted in an edentulous site. The implant will present a surface treated with double acid etching and traditional machined collar. A definitive transgingival standard machined abutment will be immediately screwed. Four months later, prosthetic procedures will start.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

implants placement

Intervention Type DEVICE

The intervention will consist of placement of two types of short implants (one with traditional machined collar and one with anodized collar). After their healing period, the prosthetic rehabilitation will be made.
