Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The outcome variables will be evaluated at the time of implant installation (Baseline) and then at 6,12, 18 and 36 months after implant installation. The data will be collected through standardized forms containing items related to clinical observations and bone loss will also be evaluated by means of standardized periapical radiographs and measurement of depth of sounding. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Among the several outcome variables, the clinical situation of the prosthesis will be initially reported for both groups (presence or absence of complications in the prosthetic restoration). The evaluation of the occlusal situation of the patient and the condition of the prosthesis in this environment should be made. ;Problems related to prosthesis and implant, as well as peri-implant tissue condition and TMJ pain symptomatology will be described when identified at clinical examination. A personalized follow-up clinical form will be used. ;In addition, a depth survey will be performed around the 4-sided implants (mesial, distal, buccal and lingual) using a periodontal probe measured at all follow-up times (6, 12, 18 and 36 months). ;In the moments of evaluation will be filled a specific form of success of the overdentures and implants in which the female and male attachments, implant situation, overdenture and antagonist will be evaluated. Also, the presence of pain and difficulty to insert or remove the prosthesis will be described. ; Participants in the survey will also respond to the OHIP and Sats-P Questionnaires regarding oral health-related quality of life and patient satisfaction regarding aesthetics, retention and comfort with the prostheses respectively. | — |
