T3 Certain Tapered With DCD vs T3 Certain Tapered Non-DCD

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Edentulous Jaw
Interventions
Device: T3 Certain Tapered Implant
Registration Number
NCT04354688
Lead Sponsor
ZimVie
Brief Summary

This will be a prospective, randomized multicenter study to determine the safety and efficacy of the T3 Certain Tapered with DCD as compared to T3 Certain Tapered without DCD. All implants will be placed in the maxilla or mandible in a single stage manner and loaded with prosthesis after 6 weeks of healing. Final restorations will take place no later than 4 months following implant placement surgery. The implants will be evaluated yearly for 2 years.

Detailed Description

This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized study that will assess the the safety and efficacy of the implant systems with:

* Resistance to countertorque testing (mobility)

* Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ)

* Changes in peri-implant crestal bone levels

* Confirmation of clinical benefits

A total of 60 implants, 30 per treatment group will be placed across all participating sites. One patient may contribute more than 1 implant. All implants/ patients will be followed for up to 2 years.
