Official title

Supplementary Implants Supporting Conventional RDPs in Kennedy Class I: A Dual-centered Randomized Controlled Trial

Overview

In this study the additional effect of supplementary implants in patients with Kennedy Class I in terms of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and cost-benefit-analyses comparing costs of maintenance care will be investigated

Interventions

  • Device dental implants and retentive implant components
    retentive components (Group A Test), which are connected to the implants to retain the RPD
  • Device dental implants and supportive implant components
    supportive components (Group B Control), which are connected to the implants to support the RPD

Primary outcome measures

  • Changes in patient-reported outcome measures (PROM) [Time frame: assessment before implant placement, -1 week and 3 months after RPD insertion, 1 week and 3 months after connecting the implant components, 1 to 5 years after implant placement (5-year study period)]
  • Changes in chewing efficiency [Time frame: assessment before implant placement, -1 week and 3 months after RPD insertion, 1 week and 3 months after connecting the implant components, 1 to 5 years after implant placement (5-year study period)]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
  • prosthetic and implant survival rates [Time frame: during follow-ups, 1 of 5 years after implant placement]
  • cost-benefit-analyses [Time frame: during follow-ups, 1 of 5 years after implant placement]
  • Evaluation of success of entire treatment [Time frame: during follow-ups, 1 of 5 years after implant placement]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Subjects must have voluntarily signed the informed consent before any study action, are willing and able to attend scheduled follow-up visits, and agree that the encoded data will be collected and analyzed
  • Males and females with at least 18 years of age
  • intraoral situation with bilateral edentulous areas located posterior to the remaining natural teeth (Kennedy class I) in the upper or lower jaw
  • remaining dentition includes a first premolar, canine or incisor as the most posterior tooth

Exclusion criteria

  • Uncontrolled systemic disease that would interfere with dental implant therapy;
  • Patients who smoke > 10 cigarettes per day or tobacco equivalents;
  • Patients with alcohol and/or drug abuse;
  • Patients with chronic pain;
  • Patients with untreated periodontitis and / or inadequate oral hygiene (Plaque Index < 30%);
  • Medical conditions requiring chronic high dose steroid therapy or anti-resorptive treatment;
  • Conditions or circumstances, in the opinion of the investigators, which would prevent completion of study participation or interfere with analysis of study results such as history of non-compliance or unreliability.

Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
