Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Implant pocket probing depth (PPD) measured from the mucosal margin to the bottom of the probable pocket and evaluated at six sites per implant (i.e., disto-buccal, mid-buccal, mesio-buccal, mesio-lingual/palatal, mid-lingual/palatal, disto-lingual/palatal) at the clinical baseline evaluation (before therapy) and the 3 and 6-month re-evaluations | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Measured at baseline, 3 and 6 months: 1. Full mouth bleeding score (FMBS) recorded at six sites per tooth: mesiobuccal, midbuccal, distobuccal, disto-oral, midoral, and mesio-oral 2. Mean full mouth plaque score (FMPS) evaluated at six sites per tooth at 30 seconds from the survey 3. Overall bleeding index (BOP) evaluated at six sites per tooth/implant at 30 seconds from the survey 4. Number of the following five keystone bacterial pathogens measured using molecular genetic analysis, micro–IDent A Test at baseline and 3 months: 4.1. Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans 4.2. Porphyromonas gingivalis 4.3. Prevotella intermedia 4.4. Tannerella forsythia 4.5. Treponema denticola | — |
