Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 1103 0
To prospectively evaluate in a randomized controlled clinical trial the clinical success of single, bilaterally placed ITI oral implants supporting mandibular bilateral distal extension RPD's over a 5-year period.
Timepoint [1] 1103 0
Evaluated annually and up to 5 years.
Secondary outcome [1] 2038 0
1. To evaluate the effect on the development of the combination syndrome (anterior hyperfunction syndrome) by the placement of distal implants on the bilateral edentulous areas in the mandible in participants with RPD's.
Timepoint [1] 2038 0
Annually and up to 5 years
Secondary outcome [2] 2039 0
2. To prospectively compare the prosthodontic maintenance procedures of conventional mandibular bilateral distal extension RPD's and implant-supported mandibular bilateral distal extension RPD's during a 5-year period.
Timepoint [2] 2039 0
Annually and up to 5 years
Secondary outcome [3] 2040 0
3.To evaluate the professional time required for fabrication and prosthodontic maintenance of conventional mandibular bilateral distal extensions RPD's, as compared to implant-supported mandibular bilateral distal extension RPD's.
Timepoint [3] 2040 0
Annually and up to 5 years
Secondary outcome [4] 2041 0
4.To prospectively compare periodontal parameters of conventional mandibular bilateral distal extension RPD's as opposed to implant-supported mandibular bilateral distal extension RPD's.
Timepoint [4] 2041 0
Annually and up to 5 years
Secondary outcome [5] 2042 0
5.To compare the patient satisfaction levels (within-subject comparison) of conventional mandibular bilateral distal extension RPD's (Kennedy Class I) as opposed to implant-supported RPD's either supported only implants with healing caps or also retained by the implants with retentive anchors.
Timepoint [5] 2042 0
Annually and up to 5 years

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
1. be categorised as being in one of three categories of patient edentulism (Class I, II or III) as defined by the American College of Prosthodontists (McGarry et al. 2002).2. an edentulous maxilla, and a Kennedy Classification I mandibular arch with healthy periodontal tissues around the natural teeth. They should be having difficulty wearing their existing mandibular partial denture opposing the maxillary complete denture; exacerbated with on-going residual ridge resorption. 3. With sufficient bone volume in the posterior mandible to receive two implants of at least 8-10mm in length and 4.1mm in diameter; 4. having suitable bone quality as assessed radiographically (Lekholm & Zarb 1985). 5. have sufficient bone volume to fulfil one of the Cawood & Howell (1988) residual ridge classifications, except Class VI.
Minimum age
30 Years
Maximum age
80 Years
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
1. patients with a Class IV category of American College of Prosthodontists classification of partial edentulism (McGarry et al. 2002).2. physical and mental disabilities which interfere with the maintenance of implants or removal of the RPD's.
