Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  IMPLANT PLACEMENET IN THE MISSING MANDIBULAR MOLAR TOOTH REGION WITH DELAYED LOADING OF THE IMPLANTS.  The control group will be treated with implant placement in the missing mandibular molar tooth. For the implant placement all implant drills recommended by the manufacturer will be used depending upon the availability of bone and its quality to achieve adequate primary stability with necessary modifications including under sizing the osteotomy. The peak insertion torque will be measured during the seating of the most coronal 4 to 5 implant threads by means of the same physio dispenser unit with a torque measuring option which was used to place the implant and recorded as being 30, 40, or 50 Newton centimetre and given a healing period of three months. Three months after the implants were placed, a final impression was made and permanent porcelain-fused-to-metal, cemented retained restorations with occlusal access hole were inserted. The cemented restorations were made on abutments provided by the implant manufacturer . The crown margin was positioned 0.5 to 1 millimetre into the peri-implant sulcus. It is a two session intervention and total duration of intervention will be 6 months for each patient.  
Intervention  IMPLANT PLACEMENET IN THE MISSING MANDIBULAR MOLAR TOOTH REGION WITH IMMEDIATE FUNCTIONAL LOADING OF THE IMPLANTS.  The test sites will be treated with implant placement in the missing mandibular molar tooth. For the implant placement all implant drills recommended by the manufacturer will be used depending upon the availability of bone and its quality to achieve adequate primary stability with necessary modifications including under sizing the osteotomy. The peak insertion torque will be measured during the seating of the most coronal 4 to 5 implant threads by means of the same physio dispenser unit with a torque measuring option which was used to place the implant and recorded as being 30, 40, or 50 Newton centimetre. Provisional cemented retained restorations with occlusal access hole will be connected to the immediately loaded implants within 24 hours of implant placement. Three months after the implants were placed, a final impression was made and permanent porcelain-fused-to-metal, cemented retained restorations with occlusal access hole were inserted. The cemented restorations were made on abutments provided by the implant manufacturer . The crown margin was positioned 0.5 to 1 millimetre into the peri-implant sulcus. It is a two session intervention and total duration of intervention will be 6 months for each patient.

Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Post operative parameters
•To record the crestal bone level at baseline , 3 months and at 6 months in both test and control groups using cone beam computed tomography scan. The first bone-implant contact at surgery was defined as the baseline level.
•To compare the implant success rates between the test and control group, if any. Implant failure criteria:
1. Absence of complete extrusion of the implant.
2. Implant should remain clinically immobile on manual testing.
Implants not fulfilling both of the above mentioned criteria are considered as failed implants.
 
Baseline, 3 months, 6 months.

Brief Summary   This is a randomized controlled clinical study evaluating the clinical and radiographic outcomes of immediate loading versus delayed loading of wide-bodied implants placed in single missing mandibular molar healed sites. Twenty four patients will receive implant placement in the mandibular missing molar tooth region among which the twelve patients in the test group will be rehabilitated with immediate functional loading of the implants and twelve group in the control group will be rehabilitated with a final prosthesis after 3 months of healing period. Post operative parameters will be to assess and compare the crestal bone level at baseline, 3 months and 6 months and to compare the implant success rates between the two groups at the end of 6 months in terms of clinical mobility of the implant and complete extrusion of the implant.
