Radiographic Peri-implant Alveolar Bone Changes in Post-menopausal Osteoporotic Women
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Dental implant placement (Straumann® Bone Level Tapered, BLT, Roxolid® SLActive®) for Osteoporosis, Postmenopausal. Completed, enrolled 27 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This is a prospective case series study aiming to evaluate the effect of post-menopausal osteoporosis on the jaw bone around dental implants with a modified titanium surface. The study consists of 8 visits that will be performed within a minimum period of 15 months. Participants will be recruited from the Rheumatology Department and Radiology Department at Barts Health National Health Service (NHS) Trust. Participants will include 20 post-menopausal osteoporotic women with a requirement of a tooth to be replaced. The main objective of this study is to radiographically compare alveolar (jaw) bone changes in width and height after the placement of a dental implant with a hydrophilic (SLActive) surface and 12 months after loading (placement of the crown) it in post-menopausal osteoporotic women.
