Bisphosphonate-coated Dental Implants
Not Provided

Dental implants (screws for fastening false teeth) have been coated with bisphosphonates (drugs that slow down removal of bone). Patients get one such screw and one without coating, by a surgeon who does not know which is which. The screws are compared by measuring how well fixed they are by a vibration measuring technique, and x-rays. The hypothesis is that the bisphosphonates will improve fixation.

Phase 2
Allocation: Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Edentatio (Toothlessness)
Device: Dental implant coating with a fibrinogen carrier for pamidronate and ibandronate
Bisphosphonate-coated implant with internal control
Each patient receives two implants at the same time: one bisphosphonate-coated and one uncoated control. Thus each patients has an internal control.
Intervention: Device: Dental implant coating with a fibrinogen carrier for pamidronate and ibandronate
