Comparative Evaluation of Implant Stability, Soft & Hard Tissue Healing Around UV Activated vs Conventional Implants

Comparative Evaluation of Implant Stability, Soft and Hard Tissue Healing Around UV Activated Versus Conventional Implants - A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Research is to compare and evaluate the primary and secondary implant stability, healing of the soft tissue around UV activated implants and conventional implants.

Research is to compare and evaluate the primary and secondary implant stability, healing of the soft tissue around UV activated implants and conventional implants. The objectives are to access the primary and secondary implant stability using Resonance frequency analysis, marginal bone level using RVG with grid, healing of the soft tissue. The control group will be treated with conventional implant and test group will be treated with UV implants. The total number of participants are 12 and 24 sites (control - 12 sites, test - 12 sites) with 3 months follow up.

Inclusion Criteria:

• At east above 18 years of age
• Patients who needs replacement for at least 2 missing teeth in the posterior region of mandible
• Adequate bone volume to accommodate planned dental implants
• Patients who will comply with oral health care instructions and necessary visits

Exclusion Criteria:

• General contraindications to dental implant treatment ( uncontrolled diabetes, severe cardiovascular or infectious disease)
• Intravenous and oral bisphosphonate therapy
• Unwillingness to return for the follow up examinations
• Smokers
• Patients who are psychologically unable to participate
• Poor oral hygiene
