Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

16 patients will be included. Each patient receives 2 dental implants. One of them is coated with a drug, zoledronate, to improve fixation. Fixation is measured by vibration resonance frequency analysis at insertion and 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks after insertion.The 2 implants in each patient are compared. We expect to find an early improvement (higher resonance frequency) in the coated implant.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Zoledronate-coated dental implant
Phase 2

Detailed Description

The zoledronate is linked to the titanium implant surface via a nanolayer of crosslinked fibrinigen. Resonance frequency is measured with standard clinical equipment (Ostell apparatus).

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Bisphosphonate implant

Dental implant coated with zoledronate Note: Both arms in each patient (2 implants)

Device: Zoledronate-coated dental implant

Placebo Comparator: control

Dental implant without coating Note: Both arms in each patient (2 implants)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Vibration frequency ratio [4 and 6 weeks]

    Each patients has a study implant and a control implant. Their change vibation frequency from insertion till measurement time point is measured and the ratio between changes for the 2 implants forms the outcome measure. Avarage values for 4 and 6 weeks will be used.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Marginal resorption [8 weeks]

    Radiographic loss of bone at the margin of the implant, measured as difference in mm from the superficial bone contour between insertion and 8 weeks.

  2. Vibration: area under the curve [2-8 weeks]

    Each patients has a study implant and a control implant. Their change vibation frequency from insertion till measurement time point is measured and the ratio between changes for the 2 implants forms the outcome measure. Avarage values for all weeks will be used.
