Bio-HPP vs Cast Co-cr as Implant Framework
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of Bio-Hpp versus Co-Cr custom abutments in fixed-detachable implant-supported mandibular partial dentures clinically and radiographically in Class I Kennedy classification (split-mouth study)

Detailed Description
Participants with bilateral partial edentulism in the posterior mandible received two implants at the positions of the second premolar and second molar on both sides; one side was restored with BioHpp based screw-retained FDP (test group) and the other side was restored with Co-Cr based screw-retained FDP (control group). All patients were clinically examined at the time of prosthesis insertion, and 6,12 months later for fracture of implant or framework, fracture, or looseness of the screw, veneer chipping, and fractures, modified bleeding index, modified plaque index, peri-implant probing depth, as well as radiographically for marginal bone loss

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- marginal bone loss around implants [12 months]
Marginal bone level was measured from the implant shoulder to the first bone to implant contact on the mesial and distal sides of the implant on digital standardized periapical radiograph using the long cone paralleling technique
- modified plaque index [12 months]
Plaque adherent to the implants was quantified at four surfaces: buccal, lingual, mesial, and distal using a plastic periodontal probe after air drying for the implant and gingiva. The four sides for each implant were scored 0-3 according to the following criteria: Score 0: No plaque detected. Score 1: Plaque can be detected by running a probe across the marginal surface of the implant. Score 2: Plaque can be seen by naked eye. Score 3: Abundance of plaque.
- modified bleeding index [12 months]
A plastic periodontal probe was passed along the gingival margin adjacent to the implant and the following scores were given according to Mombelli and Lang Score 0: No bleeding with slight pressure on the mucosa using periodontal probe. Score 1: Isolated bleeding spots visible. Score 2: Blood forms a confluent red line on margin. Score 3: Heavy or profuse bleeding
- probing depth [12 months]
., the peri- implant probing pocket depth is measured around the surfaces of the implants in four areas (mid-buccal, mid-lingual, med-mesial, mid-distal) using plastic periodontal probe* which was inserted with light force and parallel to long axis of implant
Secondary Outcome Measures
- mechanical complications [12 months after loading]
framework fracture, screw loosening, screw fracture and chipping or fracture of veneer layer
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Mandibular posterior edentulous with the first premolar as the last standing abutment tooth bilaterally.
-
All patients were edentulous for at least 6 months from the last extraction.
