Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Placement of 17 narrow-3.3 mm diameter TiZr single implants to replace single missing posterior tooth by periodontist. It is expected that contour augmentation is not required.
Intervention code [1] 301287 0
Treatment: Devices
Comparator / control treatment
Placement of standard-4.1 mm diameter TiZr single implants placed with simultaneous contour augmentation to replace single missing posterior tooth by periodontist.
Control group
Active

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 305980 0
Implant success rate (assessed according to success criteria). The implant success criteria included of absence of clinical mobility. abscence of pain, neuropathy or periimplant radiolucency and a maximal bone loss of 1.5 mm during the first year of function and < 0.2 mm annually.
This information will collected by clinical and radiographic examination.

Timepoint [1] 305980 0
At one, two, three years post implant placement.
Primary outcome [2] 305981 0
Patient satisfaction (evaluated using visual analogue scale and oral health related quality of life tool).
Timepoint [2] 305981 0
Primary time point: at time of implant placement.
Follow-up appointments:
one year after implant placement.
two years after implant placement.
three years after implant placement.
Primary outcome [3] 305982 0
Need for additional bone augmentation (assessed as whether bone augmentation has been used or not by direct observation by the operator)
Timepoint [3] 305982 0
At the time of implant placement.
Secondary outcome [1] 347187 0
Operating time (assessed from the time of preparing the site from implant placement until the site is sutured). The time will be assessed in minutes by direct observation of the assisting staff.
Timepoint [1] 347187 0
At the time of implant placement.
Secondary outcome [2] 347188 0
Changes in peri-implant marginal bone level (using peri-apical radiographs).

Aesthetic outcomes (as assessed by using pink aesthetic score (PES) and white aesthetic score (WES)
Timepoint [5] 347194 0
At the time of implant crown replacement
Secondary outcome [6] 347196 0
