Effect of Probe Material on Peri-implant Probing
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Metallic UNC-15 periodontal probe: Probing performed at six sites per implant with the prosthesis in place and after prosthesis removal, under standardized force (0.20 N).
Plastic UNC-15 periodontal probe: Probing performed at six sites per implant with the prosthesis in place and after prosthesis removal, under standardized force (0.20 N).
Study summary
Evaluate whether the type of probe (plastic vs. metallic) modifies the accuracy of peri-implant probing in single-unit implants, by comparing the probing depth recorded with the prosthesis in place versus without the prosthesis (ΔPD, mm). Secondarily, explore the influence of prosthetic design and implant position on probing values and on other clinical and radiographic parameters.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Difference in probing depth with vs. without prosthesis (ΔPS, mm) — Baseline (single clinical visit)
Difference in peri-implant probing depth (ΔPS) between plastic and metallic probes, measured by a single calibrated examiner at six sites per implant using a standardized probing force (20-25 g). Unit of Measure: millimeters (mm) This primary outcome was defined following the mandatory outcome domains recommended by the international consensus on Implant Dentistry Core Outcome Set and Measurement (ID-COSM), published in the Journal of Clinical Periodontology in 2023.
