Study summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the placement accuracy in immediately placed implants using dynamic navigation between deep-threaded and regular-threaded implants in partially edentulous patients. The main question it aims to answer is: is there a difference in implant placement accuracy between deep-threaded and regular-threaded implants using dynamic navigation? Participants will receive implants placed immediately under dynamic guidance. Researchers will compare type of implant thread (Straumann BLT versus Straumann BLX) to see if there are significant differences in placement accuracy.

Read the detailed description

The initial visit will comprise a thorough clinical examination and panoramic radiograph acquisition. Hopeless teeth resulting from trauma, periapical abscess, and periodontitis will be evaluated to see if extraction indications are met. When extraction indications were met, patients will be evaluated for suitable bone height for immediate implant placement. When bone height was suitable, patients will be asked to take a preoperative CBCT scan.

After tooth condition and bone volume evaluations, patients with adequate bone volume for immediate implant placement will be enrolled and randomly assigned to one of two groups: deep-threaded or regular-threaded.

The following implant placement accuracy parameters will be recorded using postoperative intraoral scanning superimposition: Global platform deviation (measured in millimeters), lateral platform deviation (measured in millimeters), global apex deviation (measured in millimeters), apex depth deviations (measured in millimeters), and angular deviation (measured in degrees). Primary implant stability will be measured immediately after implant insertion and measured in both insertion torque value and implant stability quotient. Radiographic bone-implant contact will be measured with a 3D implant model reconstruction method using coDiagnostiX and the contact area will be calculated using 3-matic Research as previously reported. Marginal bone loss will be measured using ImageJ with periapical radiographs taken 3 months and 1-year post-op. Implant survival will be monitored starting from the final prosthesis delivery onwards. Complications (biological, technical, and implant loss) will be recorded accordingly. Patient satisfaction will be documented with a Mandarin Chinese version of the Short Form Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire (PSQ-18) upon final prosthesis delivery.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Start is estimated for Dec 2023; primary completion for Dec 2024, 12 months later.

Of 95 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Tooth Loss, half reached primary completion within 23 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 12 and three quarters within 44. This study's planned 12 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 102 studies reached it within 23 months; a quarter within 12 and three quarters within 44.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 28, 2023, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
