Clinical evaluation of an experimental resin cement (5-year recall)

Sponsor:  3M/ESPE

The purpose of this study is to perform a five-year clinical follow-up exam on subjects who participated in a previous trial which compared two dental cements used to seat dental crowns.  The Class II restorations placed at the beginning of the study will be evaluated using the same modified USPHS criteria used in previous evaluation appointments.  The evaluation categories  are: color match, interfacial staining, secondary caries, wear, marginal integrity, surface texture and axial contour. 

 

An open prospective, multi-center study to evaluate treatment of edentulous upper jaws with an implant supported prosthesis retained by Astra Tech dental implants, fixture micro-macro, in patients with poor bone quality

Sponsor:  AstraZeneca

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term survival rate of individual "micro-macro" dental implants and the prostheses retained exclusively by these implants in the upper jaw.  This study intends to address the outcomes of this implant design in jaws that have undergone significant bone loss following tooth loss.  This is a four-site study involving three other centers in Europe.

 

Field trial on SLA tapered immediate placement dental implants

Sponsor:  Straumann USA

This study is a post market field study of a tapered dental implant used for the replacement of teeth shortly following the extraction or loss of the pre-existing tooth (or teeth).  Following surgical placement, the implant is allowed to heal for at least six weeks prior to fabrication of a dental crown.  Following placement, the implant is considered in function and will be followed for a period of five years.
