Comparison of Clinical Performance and Safety of Zirconia vs. Titanium Implants: a Multi-national RCT.

A post-market, multi-centre, prospective, open, randomized-controlled, non-inferiority clinical study to compare short-term performance and safety of the Straumann PURE 2-piece Ceramic Implant with Straumann Bone Level Implant using a fully digital workflow.

Atraumatic Zirconia Abutment Versus Customized Composite Healing Abutment in Maxilla or Mandible.

40 patients are included in the study, 20 patients in group 1 (=closure with composite material shaper; test group) and 20 patients in group 2 (=closure with custom-made zirconia oxide abutment; control group). Randomisation envelopes will be used for randomisation. Device under study: Straumann BLX, Roxolid® , SLActive® dental implants with a diameter of 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.5 mm are used. Allogenic bone botiss maxgraft® cortical granules are used as graft material. Inclusion criteria: 1. Males and females at least 18 years of age or older. 2. One implant per patient. 3. Prior to any study-related activity, the subject must voluntarily sign informed consent, be willing and able to attend scheduled follow-up visits, and agree to the collection and analysis of pseudonymised data. 4. Lateral individual teeth (premolars and molars). 5. Class I extraction socket (intact buccal wall) or class II (1/3 of buccal wall). 6. The gingival contour of the tooth to be extracted - without recession. 7. Adjacent anterior teeth have no periodontal loss. 8. There are no implants in the adjacent teeth. 9. Non-traumatic tooth extraction, which results in intact walls of the socket. Exclusion criteria: 1. Deep occlusion (severe, class II). 2. The patient smokes a lot (more than 10 cigarettes per day). 3. Systemic disease (osteoporosis). 4. No initial stability has been achieved after the implant insertion procedure.

Effect of Abutment Configuration on Peri-implant Soft and Hard Tissue in the Esthetic Zone - Randomized Clinical Trial

The aims of our study are to investigate in patients with immediate implantation replacing a single tooth in the maxillary anterior (#FDI 15-25) region the effect of (a) custom vs cylindrical stock healing abutments, then (b) screw retained single ceramic crowns, on the peri implant hard- and soft-tissue formation and blood flow.
