Study Comparing Implant Stability in Post-Extraction Sites Using Different Implant Designs Over 12 Months

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are studying how the design of dental implants affects their stability over time when placed in sockets after tooth extraction. This trial focuses on bone healing and implant stability by comparing two types of implants with different macro designs. The study is conducted as a randomized controlled trial to understand if the implant stability quotient ISQ changes based on the implants shape and design. Participants will receive one of two implants one with an aggressive macro design and one with a less aggressive macro design. The implants will be placed into post-extraction sockets classified as class I with intact buccal walls. Stability will be measured by screwing a smart peg into the implant and recording ISQ values monthly for 12 months starting from the time of implant insertion. Insertion torque will also be recorded at the time the implant is placed. During the study, participants will have monthly follow-up visits for 12 months to monitor implant stability. The primary outcome is the ISQ measured monthly from insertion to one year later. Secondary outcomes include insertion torque measured at implant placement. The study includes healthy volunteers aged 18 to 99 years, with no implant or periodontal complications in neighboring teeth. Safety and implant performance will be monitored throughout the follow-up period.
