Esthetic, Clinical and Radiographic Outcomes of Immediately Placed Implants (Type 1) and Early Placed Implants (Type 2)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The investigators are asking subjects to take part in a research study of soft tissue (gums) and bone (jawbone) healing around dental implants following tooth extraction. The investigators want to compare how the gums and the bone changes shape with healing in two different scenarios:
-
When the implant is placed at the same time the tooth is extracted.
-
When the tooth is extracted and then left to heal for a period of 4 to 8 weeks before the implant is placed.
Previous studies have shown that both methods work and can give good results. In fact the two methods are used routinely as part of standard care but it is not known if the two procedures are equally good since they have never been compared in one same research study.

Detailed Description
This controlled, randomized clinical trial (RCT) is designed to compare soft and hard tissue dimensional changes for two commonly used approaches for replacing a recently extracted tooth by means of a dental implant, i.e. immediate implant placement (Type 1) or early implant placement (Type 2). Additionally, this study will evaluate the association between the osseous anatomy and implant position with soft and hard tissue changes.
Extraction sites will include maxillary and mandibular anterior and premolar teeth having intact adjacent teeth. Implants placed for this study will be SLA surface, bone level design, Straumann BL RC (Bone Level Regular Cross-fit ) 4.1mm or BL NC (Bone Level Narrow Cross-fit ) 3.3mm diameter implants at 8, 10, 12 or 14mm in length.
Immediate implant placement (Type 1) resulting in a horizontal defect dimension (HDD) will receive bone grafting, using freeze dried bone allograft (FDBA)(Straumann Allograft GC®) and will be covered by a resorbable membrane (BioGide®).
For the implants randomized to type 2 implant placement, the extraction socket will be filled with a collagen plug and allowed to heal for 4 to 8 weeks before the implant will be placed. Simultaneous guided bone regeneration (GBR) will be performed using FDBA (Straumann Allograft GC®)and a resorbable collagen membrane (BioGide®). The type 2 implant placement procedure will follow the guidelines as described by Buser et al. (2008).
All implant placement will follow standard protocols utilizing tapping and placement according to the manufacturer's guidelines.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Mid Facial Mucosal Level at Implant Site [3 months after crown delivery]
Baseline will be at the time of crown delivery. Thereafter, the mid facial mucosal level at implant site will be recorded at 3, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 months after crown delivery.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- PES/WES (Pink Esthetic Score, White Esthetic Score). [3, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 months after crown delivery]
The PES and WES scales are 10 point scales, made up of 5 categories, each with a 2 point value. Each category is scored out of 2, and the scores totaled to give an optimal score out of 10. Any score of 6 or higher out of 10 would be considered a good clinical outcome. the PES categories focus on the gum area, and the WES categories focus on the tooth. The scores for PES and WES are totaled, to give a score out of 20, with 20 being the highest possible score (best outcome). The values are totaled and a mean score of all the readings is reported.
- Probing Depth [3, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 months after crown delivery]
The measurement of the pocket around the implanted tooth, measured with a graduated probe. A healthy pocket depth is around 3mm with no bleeding during the measurement process. The values are totaled and a mean score of all the readings is reported.
- Modified Plaque Index [3, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 months after crown delivery]
Measurement of amount of plaque build-up on teeth, using a scale of 0 (no plaque detection), to 3 (an abundance of soft matter). The scores are totaled and a mean score reported.
- Modified Bleeding Index [3, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 months after crown delivery]
Bleeding from the gums is measured on probing the gum and measured on scale of 0 to 5, with 0 being the best outcome, with no bleeding, and 5 being the worst outcome, with spontaneous bleeding. The scores are totaled and a mean score reported.
- Radiographic Bone Level [Up to 5 years after baseline]
Secondary outcome measures will be recorded at 3, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 months after crown delivery.
