Study of Neodent Implantable Devices of GM Zygomatic Line

Brazil16 participantsStarted 2020-07-15

Plain-language summary

GM Zygomatic implant is intended to be surgically placed in the posterior region of the maxilla and zygoma. It is indicated for multiple prostheses in case of severe resorption in the maxilla and total edentulism (situations in which the installation of convectional implants is contraindicated). The objective of the study is to confirm the long-term safety and clinical performance of GM Zygomatic implants and GM Zygomatic abutments in daily dental practice setting, by means of a prospective collection of clinical data concerning the success and survival rates of these devices. Devices will be used according to standard routine in daily practice, according to all indications as specified by the manufacturer in the instructions for use (IFU). Ten patients will be followed for 36 months and monitored for Adverse Events by the Investigators until the last protocol-related procedure of a patient is completed.

Inclusion Criteria: * 18 years of age or more; * Opposing dentition (natural teeth or teeth/implant-supported fixed restorations). Exclusion Criteria: * Symptomatology related to the facial sinuses (maxillary sinusitis, polyps or any other sinus pathologies); * Unfavorable maxillary relations; * Signs of allergy or hypersensitivity to the chemical ingredients of the material: titanium; * Presence of acute inflammatory or infectious processes in live tissue; * Unsuitable bone volume and/or quality; * Systemic complications or diseases such as bone metabolism disorders, blood clotting disorders, unsuitable healing capacity, incomplete jawbone growth, uncooperative and not motivated patient, abuse of drugs or alcohol, psychosis, prolonged functional disorders which resist any treatment with medications, xerostomia, weakened immunological system, diseases which require the use of steroids, endocrine diseases, insufficient oral hygiene, and pregnancy. Additionally, subjects will be excluded if they present systemic complications that may expose them to an eventual surgical risk if submitted to surgery under general anesthesia or under local anesthesia and sedation (decompensated diabetics, immunosuppressed, patients who were submitted to radiotherapy and chemotherapy less than 4 years or who had a heart attack less than 1 year previously, patients with clinical signs and/or symptoms of sinusitis and congestion and/or nasal secretion.

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
