Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The main study parameters include the patient reported outcomes at each timepoint, as well as the clinical reported outcomes assessed after the dental implant placement. Patient reported outcomes consider impact on quality of life, functioning, aesthetics and comfort. The questionnaire is submitted as appendix. Clinician reported outcomes include: visible plaque (yes/no), unrestored carious lesions (yes/no), periodontal health (clinical score), Periodontal health from the implant site and its neighboring teeth is evaluated by bleeding on probing and pocket depth, occurrence and time point of complications | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| All case mix variables assessed at the first time point as well as the characteristics of the implant and prosthesis. The questionnaire is submitted as appendix. Case mix variables include: Age, gender, dental insurance (yes/no), oral hygiene (tooth brushing frequency, interdental cleaning, (reason for) dental visits in the last year, tooth brushing a day), tobacco use, alcohol use (daily vs occasionally) and chronic medical conditions (diabetes, high blood pressure).
