Brief summary
NDI represent an advisable treatment option when the mesio-distal space is compromised. In a recent retrospective study with a follow-up of 8 years in which they wanted to evaluate the long-term survival, complications, peri-implant conditions, marginal bone loss, and patient satisfaction of fixed dental prostheses supported by NDI in the posterior area. They observe a survival rate of 97% and absence of prosthetic complications after the study period time. More recently, Souza et al. performed a prospective randomized split mouth study with 3 years follow-up with the aim of comparing marginal bone level, implant survival and success rates and prosthesis success rates of NDI and SDI placed in the posterior area of the mandible to support single prosthesis. They observed an implant survival rate of 100% for both groups at 1 and 3 years. The prosthesis success rate at 1 and 3 years was of 95.4% and 100%, respectively. NDI present a high survival rate on the evaluated studies. Therefore, the aim of the first study is to compare the patient related outcomes, implants and prostheses success and survival rates of pure titanium NDI versus SDI with simultaneous bone regeneration in narrow alveolar ridges at posterior areas of the maxilla and the mandible.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Marginal bone level difference | The changes in MBL will be registered at 8 weeks, 6 months, 12 months, and 3 years. | To assess the MBL, each radiograph must register the most coronal aspect of the bone crest (BC) at mesial and distal to the implant, the position of the implant shoulder (IS) and the first bone to implant contact (FBiC). The marginal bone crest level (MBL) will be measured by calculating the distance between BC and IS. MBL will be considered negative when position of BC is coronal to IS, positive when position BC is apical to IS. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Patient related outcomes | At 1, 2 and 12 weeks | \- Level of discomfort - at 1-, 2- and 12-weeks post-surgery (VAS scale): 0 - 4 (being 0 no discomfort and 4 very severe discomfort) |
| Patient Related Outcomes | At 1, 2 and 12 weeks | Willingness of undergoing same surgical procedure - at 1-, 2- and 12-weeks post-surgery (VAS scale): 0 - 4 (being 0 will never undergo this surgery again and 4 no problem to repeat this surgery) |
| Implant survival criteria: | 12 months | Defined as the implant being still in function |
| Implant success criteria: | 12 months | Defined as absence of: * Persistent pain, foreign body sensation, and/or dysesthesia * Recurrent peri-implant infection with suppuration * Implant mobility * Continuous radiolucency around the implant * Clinical probing depth (CPD) ≥5 mm associated with bleeding/suppuration on probing (BoP/SoP). |
| Prosthesis success criteria | 12 months | * Absence of prosthesis (crown or abutment) mobility * Number of maintenance visits * Crown screw loosening * Abutment screw loosening * Implant fracture * Crown screw fracture * Abutment screw fracture * Crown chipping. |
| Resonance frequency analysis | Implant surgery and after 12 months | Resonance frequency analysis using Penguin ® will be measured immediately after implant placement, when taking implant impressions |
| Level of keratinized tissue surrounding the implants | 12 months | Level of keratinized tissue will be measured from the gingival margin of the restored implant to the mucogingival line using a periodontal millimetre probe. |
| Peri-implant mucosal thickness using a millimetre probe | 12 months | — |
| Presence of post-surgical complications | At 1, 2 and 12 weeks | Defined as absence of: * Infection/suppuration * Wound dehiscence * Implant failure * Post-op oedema |
| Presence of peri-implant health | At 12 weeks, 6 and 12 months | Defined as: * Peri-implant probing depth (6 points). * Bleeding on probing (presence or absence). * Suppuration on probing (presence or absence). * Plaque index (presence or absence). |
| Presence of prosthetic complications | At 6 and 12 months | Defined as: * Number of maintenance visits * Crown screw loosening ("Yes" or "No") * Abutment screw loosening ("Yes" or "No") * Implant fracture ("Yes" or "No") * Crown screw fracture ("Yes" or "No") * Abutment screw fracture ("Yes" or "No") * Framework fracture ("Yes" or "No") * Crown ceramic chipping ("Yes" or "No") |
