Alveolar Bone Loss, Periodontitis
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate clinically and radiographically soft tissue around single-implant crowns and peri-implant bone resorption respectively by using zirconia implants or titanium implants in horizontally deficient partially edentulous ridges.
Detailed description
Experimental: Main treatment group Zirconia implants will be placed in a prosthetically guided position in horizontally deficient ridges in main treatment group. Active Comparator: Control group Titanium implants will be placed in a prosthetically guided position in horizontally deficient ridges in control group.
Interventions
Following standard surgical protocol, Zirconia implant will be placed in horizontally deficient ridge.
Following standard surgical protocol, Titanium implant will be placed in horizontally deficient ridge.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Based on the classification of alveolar ridge width given by Tolstunov, subjects with * partially edentulous (2/3 teeth missing) * systemically healthy subjects within the age group of 25-44 years * Class III ridges characterized by moderate i.e., 4-6mm of alveolar ridge width will be included.
Exclusion criteria
* Medically compromised patients -. Subjects who underwent radiotherapy or chemotherapy and with * Habit of smoking, tobacco and alcohol abuse * Subjects with active periodontal disease to residual dentition and lack of oral hygiene will be excluded from this study.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation of the soft tissue around single implant crowns | Baseline to 6 months | Pink Esthetic Score (0-2; increasing scores means improvement in clinical outcomes) is used to evaluate the soft tissue around single implant crowns that might change over time at 3 months and 6 months. |
| Peri-implant bone resorption | Baseline to 6 months | measured in terms of vertical bone levels present mesial and distal to implant which will be measured by comparing CBCT |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Implant survival rate | Baseline to 6 months | Implant survival rate before and after prosthetic loading based on Criteria: A) Persistent pain or dysesthesia B) Peri-implant infection with suppuration C) Absence of mobility D) Absence of continuous peri-implant radiolucency, but with peri-implant bone resorption assessed using dichotomous scale. |
