Percent Change in Volume of Alveolar Ridge as Measured by 3D Intraoral Scanning Primary · 12 months post implant surgery

Volume of the alveolar ridge (percentage change of the volume) as measured by 3D Intraoral scanning

GroupValue95% CI
Implant With Prophylactic Allograft15.5± 19
Implant Without Prophylactic Allograft16.8± 62
Percentage of Implant Survival Secondary · 12 months post implant surgery

Implant survival at 12 months post implant surgery. Percentage of implants surviving after 12 months of placement

GroupValue95% CI
Implant With Prophylactic Allograft100
Implant Without Prophylactic Allograft90
Marginal Bone Levels (MBLs) Secondary · 12 months post implant surgery

Marginal bone levels (in millimeters) as measured by radiographic translucency. Bone levels between implant/abutment interface and crest of the bone were measured at time of implant placement and at 12 months later. The negative sign in the results below indicates that there was bone loss in both groups.

GroupValue95% CI
Implant With Prophylactic Allograft-0.17± 0.33
Implant Without Prophylactic Allograft-0.01± 0.11
Vertical Tissue Change as Measured by 3D Intraoral Scanning Secondary · 12 months post surgery

This measurement is for the vertical position of the gingival margin change based on superimposed 3D intraoral scans

GroupValue95% CI
Implant With Prophylactic Allograft0.18± 0.27
Implant Without Prophylactic Allograft0.16± 0.31

Sponsor's own description

The purpose of this study is to prospectively evaluate whether including an allogeneic gum graft (PerioDerm\*) during dental implant therapy improves implant health and appearance. On the day of implant surgery, participating subjects will be randomized to either receive or not receive a supplemental gum graft along with the implant. Participating subjects will also be asked to complete a brief (about 15 questions) oral health questionnaire. Participating subjects will return to the clinic about 8 weeks post surgery for digital crown impressions and again at 11-13 weeks after surgery for crown placement. Participating subjects will also return to clinic at 1 year after implant placement for implant evaluation. At this final study appointment, x-rays and a 3D intraoral scan will be obtained for the purpose of measuring alveolar volume. The health of the mucosa surrounding the implant and subject satisfaction will be assessed via bleeding upon probing and completion of a brief questionnaire, respectively.
