Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Conventional spiral implants placement without PRGF.  Control site- Conventional implant placement without PRGF in each moderate smoker patient with identical edentulous site. 
Intervention  Maintained Active Implant with platelet rich in growth factors (PRGF).  Test Site- -Maintained Active Implant are spiral design implants but with innovative hollowed platform and with few points of holes in the body to deliver regenerative substances i.e., Platelet Rich in Growth Factors (PRGF). Mainly used in moderate smoker s for rehabilitation of edentulous sites. -After 1month of healing period, only at the MAI implant site once again PRGF is injected, and implant closed by cover screw. After healing period of 3-4 months, implants will be exposed, and screw retained abutment will be placed on both sites and patient will be subjected to prosthodontic treatment. -Each patient will be assessed at the time of fixture placement, after 3 months (at the time of loading), and at 6 months after loading.

Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Healing of peri-implant soft tissues and marginal bone loss especially in cases of smokers by modification of implant design along with PRGF to shorten the healing time and bone and implant contact.

 
Dividing patient visits in following stages: -
1-Fixture placement along with PRGF at test site and control site with conventional fixture only. Baseline recordings.
2.At 1 month, PRGF will be injected at site with MAI implant only.
3.At 3-4 months abutment placement.
4.At 6 months after loading.  
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
•To evaluate aesthetic outcomes.
•Patient compliance and experience.
 
- Aesthetic outcomes:
• Pink esthetic score
• White esthetic score

-Post operative pain and healing after 24 hours of surgery, 1weeks and at 1month follow up period.

Brief Summary  

There are various options for regeneration of bone around the implant like autogenous bone graft, demineralized freeze-dried bone (DFDB), Platelet rich in growth factors (PRGF) etc. autogenous bone graft have drawback of donor site morbidity, DFDB is more prone to infection and rejection while PRGF is one of the promising choices which is having least complications with no donor site morbidity. Apart from other qualities economically it seems to be the best choice till date. So, in this study we have chosen PRGF and are going to evaluate its efficacy in bone formation. A systematic review also suggested that Platelet rich fibrin might enhance implant stability during early phase of osseointergration (Strauss et al. 2018).

Many attempts have been made to attain ultimate primary as well as secondary stability (osseointegration) by modifying macro as well as micro design of dental implants. Recently, Maintained Active Implants (MAI) has been introduced which is based on spiral design implants but with innovative hollowed platform and with few points of holes in the body to deliver regenerative substances to ensure bone preservation and internal osseointegration with years to come. However, there is lacunae in the available literature regarding the PRGF delivery at the healing site and its outcome by this design of dental implant. From this we try to overcome the limitations of the available dental implants in healing of peri-implant soft tissues and marginal bone loss especially in cases of smokers which have high prevalence of implant failure.

Few literatures, especially split mouth randomised controlled trial, are available to overcome the adverse effects of smoking, PRGF is used and its effect on peri-implant soft tissues, marginal bone loss and to establish primary stability that is crucial phase for implant survival. So, we are attempting to evaluate the effect of PRGF on bony and soft tissue integration of the dental implant in moderate cigarette smokers. In this study delivery system of the regenerative material and implant design is different from the studies conducted till date.
