Study summary

Partial or total edentulousness has a significant impact on quality of life both functionally and aesthetically.

TBR® Tissue Level Z1 Implants allow the patient to prevent bone resorption and maintain facial tissue and musculature support. At the functional level, the patient who benefits from implant treatment regains normal masticatory function with all the benefits on the quality of life that this can bring him.

Due to the osseointegration of the implant and the biocompatibility of the materials used, the implant treatment remains effective in the long term and makes it possible to maintain the aesthetics of the smile.

Read the detailed description

Many adults have one or more missing teeth. The negative consequences of partial or total edentulousness are numerous in the orofacial sphere:

  • Edentulousness causes a strong aesthetic deficit due to the lack of support of facial tissues and musculature;
  • Edentulousness generates a functional deficit that can have significant repercussions on the nutritional status of the affected subject;
  • Edentulousness is accompanied by bone resorption of the jawbones which is inevitable in the absence of implant treatment;
  • In addition, the resulting feelings of discomfort and fragility are experienced as a real psychological handicap by the patient, partially or totally edentulous, which can then have significant repercussions on his social life.

TBR® Tissue Level Z1 implants are intended for placement in the maxillary or mandibular arch in partially or completely edentulous patients for prosthetic restoration in the following cases:

  • Single edentulousness,
  • Intercalary edentulousness,
  • Terminal edentulousness,
  • Total edentulousness.

The following clinical conditions must be observed before placing a dental implant:

  • Sufficient quality and volume of bone support;
  • Healthy oral condition;
  • no contraindications for implant setting

The procedure used to accomplish its intended use is as follows:

  • The receiving implant site is prepared using an established drilling sequence then the implant is placed in this site: the body of the implant (in titanium) has an endosseous position while the ring (in ceramic) remains transgingival;
  • After an osseointegration time, the final prosthetic abutment will be loaded on the implant.

The expected benefits of this surgery are to improve the quality of life of patients, to recover the chewing function and the aesthetics of the smile.

Interventions

  • DeviceDental implant

    The procedure used to accomplish its intended use is as follows : The recipient implant site is prepared using a drilling sequence, then the implant is placed at the crestal level with a cover screw to allow the tissues healing. After this healing phase, the final prosthesis will be loaded on the implant.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. the success rate of tissue integration of the implant

    Integration of the implant 15 years after implantation

    Time frame: 15 years after implantation

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change of the quality of life of patients following the recovery of a complete dentition with the OHIP- 14 score (Oral Health Impact Profile)

    The quality of life of patients will be evaluate with the OHIP- 14 score (Oral Health Impact Profile) before implantation and 5 years after implantation

    Time frame: 5 years after implantation

  2. Complication rate taking into account pain, local tenderness, infection, allergy, mobility of the implant, fracture

    pain, local tenderness, infection, allergy, mobility of the implant, fracture will be collected during during the 5 years follow-up

    Time frame: 5 years after implantation

  3. Measuring chewing function with occlusal assessment

    Occlusal assessment will be performed after implantation and at 5 years follow-up

    Time frame: 5 years after implantation

  4. Radiographic analysis of the osseointegration of the implant

    A radiographic analysiswill be performed after implantation and at 5 years follow-up to evaluate the osseointegration of the implant

    Time frame: 5 years after implantation

  5. Absence of inflammation (visual) and infection (radiographic)

    Assessment of inflammation with visual examination and assessment of infection with radiographic examination 5 years after implantation

    Time frame: 5 years after implantation
