Implant Phenotype Modification Via GBR and ADM
University of Michigan
Start Date
6/1/2025
Completion Date
9/1/2027
Summary
Single implant sites with bone loss can often be managed by bone grafting alone. The purpose of this study is to determine whether putting a soft tissue graft substitute over the bone graft will provide an increased benefit for improving the health, appearance, and stability of the bone and gums surrounding the implant.
Detailed Description
The study will treat patients that need a single implant at a previously edentulous site (\>3 months post extraction) that requires phenotypic modification. These patients will receive an implant with simultaneous GBR, with half of the participants also receiving an ADM graft.
Eligibility Criteria
Age Range: 18 years to No maximum
Inclusion Criteria:
* Age ≥ 18 years.
* Subjects with a physical status of systemically healthy or suffering from mild to moderate, but well-controlled disease; American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) I or II.
* Subjects must have one edentulous region, with at least 3 months of healing post-extraction, in the esthetic zone of the maxilla or the premolar and canine region of the mandible. This region includes the maxillary premolars, canines, and incisors.
* Subjects must have a full mouth plaque and bleeding score of less than or equal to 20%, measured at four sites per tooth.
* The patients should have a thin periodontal phenotype; bucco-lingual ridge thickness greater than 6mm.
* Seibert class I deficiency (Seibert, 1983)
* Patients willing to sign the informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Presence of uncontrolled and/or untreated periodontal disease.
* Patients currently smoking cigarettes, cannabis, and electronic cigarettes.
* Subjects taking medications known to impact bone metabolism or have the capacity to affect wound healing. These drugs include bisphosphonates, corticosteroids, parathyroid hormone, RANKL inhibitors, past exposure to head and neck radiation, chemotherapy within the last 12 months, among others.
* Subjects with systemic diseases that impact bone metabolism and wound healing. Namely, osteoporosis, osteopenia, hyperparathyroidism, Paget's disease.
* Allergy to the graft materials.
* Pregnant subjects or individuals who self-report as attempting to become pregnant.
* Patient's unwilling to sign the informed consent.
