Multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical study comparing immediate loading to delayed loading of dental implants using a fully digital workflow
Summary description of the study
In this study, two procedures for final crown placement after implant insertion are compared. Patients are randomly assigned to two treatment groups: in one group, the final crown is placed three days after implantation, while patients in the other group receive the final crown three months after implantation. Patients are then observed for up to one year after crown placement.
(BASEC)
Intervention under investigation
The interventions studied are immediate implant loading vs. delayed implant loading.
In the first procedure, an optical intraoral impression is taken immediately after implantation and sent to the dental laboratory. The dental laboratory then fabricates the final reconstruction, which is placed on the patient within three days after implant insertion.
In the second procedure, an optical intraoral impression is taken one month after implantation and sent to the dental laboratory. The dental laboratory fabricates the final reconstruction, and the final reconstruction is placed three months after implantation.

- Efficiency (time)
- Marginal bone level (implant shoulder to first bone-to-implant-contact) after insertion of the final reconstruction, 6 months and 1-year follow-up
- Implant survival at 6 months and 1-year follow-up
- Schedule of visits plus and additional visits (efficiency)
- Treatment cost
- Peri-implant clinical parameters ( PD,PI, BOP, REC,KER, at the implant sites after insertion of the final reconstruction, at 6 months and at 1-year follow-up
- Implant-supported crown height after insertion of the final reconstruction, at 6 months and 1-year follow-up
