Overview
The research aims to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of satellite implants in the posterior mandible by assessing the levels of crestal bone after six months of first loading and secondary stability issues at fourth-month , primary stability at time of implant loading . In particular, the primary outcome of this study is to assessment stability of satellite implants, which will be evaluated by anycheck device.
Detailed description
satellite dental implants show potential for improving stability, and reducing crestal bone loss in the posterior mandible site, it offers effective solution for cases where primary stability is compromised due to poor bone quality or quantity. By providing additional support and anchorage, they enhance the overall stability of the implant, reducing the risk of failure and allowing for successful immediate loading. clinical evidence for their efficacy is still lacking. This prospective case series intends to fill this gap by evaluating crestal bone levels and stability factors in patients who are getting satellite implants for immediate loading in the posterior mandible. The results will improve clinical recommendations and practice for implant placements in the posterior mandible.
Interventions
- Procedure satellite implant
Satellite implant is a additional holding component as a stabilizer to provide a polygonal support to distribute forces and moments on single-standing implants give the implant sufficient resistance to withstand masticatory forces or at least keep it in a stable position during an unloaded healing period to achieve stabilization and subsequent osseointegration of implants.
Primary outcome measures
- Assessment of Stability Using Satellite Implant for Immediate Loading in Posterior Mandible [Time frame: Immediately post-implantation]
Secondary outcome measures (1)
- Assessment of Stability Using Satellite Implant for Immediate Loading in Posterior Mandible [Time frame: The secondary stability is assessed four months post-implantation for each patient.]
