Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Patients with implants placed in the clinics participating in the study who are awaiting impression taking or registration to make and place the implant-supported crown
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients with implants placed in other clinics whose prior treatment is unknown and may interfere with the objectives of the study 2. Implants with mobility whose indication will be their removal due to lack of integration 3. Implants that already have implant-supported crowns and there is an indication to repeat the crown due to fracture or loss of retention
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Passive adjustment or fit measured at the radiographic level. Measurements will be made using image analysis software (Image J. National Institutes of Health (NIH); Bethesda, MD, USA) calibrating the software through a known length, which could be the length of the implant. This is measured from the implant shoulder of the implant to the first bone-to-implant contact in both the mesial and the distal aspects in radiographs (two points per implant). Measured at baseline, 6 months and 12 months. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Probing depth measured with a periodontal probe (UNC-15, Hu Friedy, Chicago, IL) at six points per implant at baseline, 6 months and 12 months 2. Bleeding on probing measured with a periodontal probe (UNC-15, Hu Friedy, Chicago, IL) at six points per implant at baseline, 6 months and 12 months 3. Time for taking impressions or registrations on implants during the prosthetic procedure, measured with a watch in minutes and seconds 4. Radiographic variables: radiographic bone loss measured from the shoulder of the implant to the first bone-implant contact in both mesial and distal aspects at two points per implant at baseline, 6 months and 12 months 5. Patient perception measured with a questionnaire and visual analogue score at baseline after the prosthetic procedure | — |
