About

An interventional prospective randomized clinical trial (RCT) was conducted in parallel groups. The sample size consisted of 30 patients who were randomly assigned to two groups based on the type of surgical intervention. The first group received implants with a sloped edge platform (Dentsply Sirona CIS, ASTRA TECH Implant System, registered in Russia on 21/12/2019, No. РЗН 2015/3214). The second group received implants with bone grafting. The assessment in the postoperative period included evaluating the condition of the soft tissues, bone resorption, number of analgesics, duration of the operation, edema, keratinized mucosa width, implant stability quotient, pain severity, and quality of life.

Full description

The research aimed to compare the clinical and radiological assessment of soft and hard tissues surrounding implants with a sloped edge platform. Thirty patients with alveolar ridge atrophy were examined at the Department of Surgical Dentistry of the E.V. Borovsky Institute of Dentistry, I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University. These patients displayed a deficiency in hard tissue width, necessitating augmentation for dental implant placement. Patients were randomly divided into two groups based on treatment methods. The first group received implants with a sloped edge platform (Dentsply Sirona CIS, ASTRA TECH Implant System, registered in Russia on 21/12/2019, No. РЗН 2015/3214). The second group underwent treatment with implants of a "standard" design combined with bone grafting. Gender and age characteristics were matched between the groups for comparability.

Patients in the first group were implanted with sloped edge platform implants, while the second group received implants with a different design (Dentsply Sirona CIS, ASTRA TECH Implant System, registered in Russia on 21/12/2019, No. РЗН 2015/3214) incorporating guided bone regeneration. All groups underwent muco-periosteal flap mobilization followed by wound closure without tension using simple interrupted sutures.

In the early postoperative phase, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory therapy was combined with the use of local antiseptics for daily care. Implant uncovering with healing abutment installation occurred 4-6 months post-intervention. The postoperative assessments included evaluating soft tissue condition, bone resorption, analgesic consumption, operation duration, edema, keratinized mucosa width, implant stability quotient, pain severity, and quality of life.
