Brief summary

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate non-inferiority of the Straumann Bone Level Ø 3.3 mm NC SLActive Roxolid Implants compared to Straumann Bone Level Ø 4.1 mm RC SLActive Roxolid Implants based on mean crestal bone level changes measured between surgery and 12 months post-implant placement. The secondary objectives will assess differences in clinical outcomes between the test and control implants, including implant success and survival, gingival recession, subject satisfaction and additional early bone level measurements.

Detailed description

This is a randomized, controlled, multi-center clinical study. The total study duration for each patient should be 12 ± 1 months. Straumann Bone Level implants will be placed in the pre-molar or anterior region of the mandible or maxilla for single tooth replacement, followed by provisional prosthetic loading after 25 ± 4 days and by final prosthetic loading 6 ± 1 months after implant loading. In total 6 visits per patient are scheduled in this study. Bone level changes, implant success and survival, gingival recession, subject satisfaction and adverse events (AEs) will be assessed. The study devices are CE-(Conformité Européenne, meaning European Conformity) marked products. Straumann Bone Level implants Ø 3.3 mm NC SLActive Roxolid and Straumann Bone Level Ø 4.1 mm RC SLActive implants. Five centers in USA will participate.

Inclusion criteria

* Subjects must have voluntarily signed the informed consent form * Subjects must be males or females who are a minimum of 20 years of age * Subjects must have a single tooth gap in the pre-molar or anterior region of the mandible or maxilla (ADA tooth positions 4-13 and 20-29; FDI tooth positions 11-15, 21-25, 31-35, and 41-45) * Subjects must have opposing dentition (natural teeth, fixed or removable restorations) * Subjects must have a full mouth plaque score ≤ 25%, according to O'Leary, at the time of screening * Subjects must have adequate bone to encapsulate the implant and allow placement of an Ø 4.1 mm Bone Level Implant. * Adequate bone height of at least 1 mm longer than the length of the study implant * Subjects must have substantially healed (at least 16 weeks after tooth extraction) extraction sockets * Subjects must be committed to the study and the required follow-up visits * Subjects must be in good general health as assessed by the Investigator

Mean Crestal Bone Level Change

Mean crestal bone level change between implant placement and 12 months post loading as determined by radiographic measurement of mesial and distal bone levels following placement of a Straumann Bone Level implant with 3.3 mm diameter versus a Straumann Bone Level implant with 4.1 mm diameter in the anterior or pre-molar region of the mandible or maxilla.

4.1 mm Implant DiameterMean Crestal Bone Level Change0.48 mmStandard Deviation 0.67
Comparison: The primary efficacy endpoint is change in crestal bone level from loading to 12 months post-loading. The primary analysis is a test for non-inferiority of the test implant to the control implant at the one-sided 5% significance level. The null hypothesis is that µ3.3 ≥ µ4.1 + δ, where µ3.3 is the mean change in crestal bone level for the test implants, µ4.1 is the mean change in crestal bone level for control implants, and δ is a pre-specified clinically significant difference.p-value: 0.02ANCOVA
