Randomized Study of Integration Success of Osseotite Dental Implants Placed Using Different Insertion Procedures

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Tooth Disease
Partial Edentulism
Interventions
Procedure: High torque insertion
Procedure: Low torque insertion
Registration Number
NCT01529736
Lead Sponsor
ZimVie
Brief Summary

Osseotite implants placed with higher insertion torque (TEST procedure) will have higher initial stability and integration success than those placed with lower insertion torque forces.

Detailed Description

Osseotite implants will be placed using the standard lower insertion torque forces and compared to implants placed using higher insertion torque forces.
