Tooth agenesis

This study tested a special drilling technique called osseodensification, which compresses bone instead of removing it, to prepare the jaw for dental implants. Twenty-three adults with missing teeth received about 40 implants using this method. The goal was to see if the techniqu…

This study tested two methods to make gum tissue thicker around dental implants in the front of the mouth. 36 adults who needed a single tooth implant received either a graft of their own gum tissue or a collagen matrix. The goal was to see which approach better improved gum thic…

This study looked at two types of ceramic bridges used to replace one or two missing back teeth. Researchers followed 31 people for up to 4 years to see which bridge material had fewer problems like fractures or loosening. The goal is to find out which option works better and las…

This study tested two ways to thicken gum tissue around dental implants: using a collagen matrix or a small piece of the patient's own connective tissue. Fifty-two adults with thin gums received one of the two treatments. The researchers measured gum thickness, pain, swelling, an…

This study tested a Turkish version of the Johns Hopkins In-Room Independence Scale, which measures a patient's ability to move, use the toilet, and think clearly while in their hospital room. Researchers worked with 100 adults who had conditions like stroke, Parkinson's, or ampu…

This study looked at 60 adults who needed a single tooth replaced right after extraction. Researchers compared two types of implant surfaces and whether adding low-level laser therapy helped. The goal was to see which approach gave the best implant stability and least bone loss o…

This study looked at how common muscle and posture problems are in physiotherapy students and whether a special physiotherapy program could help. 44 students with back pain and muscle tightness received treatments like trigger point release, stretching, and joint mobilization. Th…

This study looked at whether letting patients control their own sedation during arm surgery under regional anesthesia leads to higher satisfaction compared to having an anesthesiologist control it. 70 adults having upper limb orthopedic surgery were randomly assigned to either pa…

This study looked at whether using a temporary crown (temporization) improves the pink color and shape of gums after a delayed dental implant in people with thin gums. Sixteen adults with a missing front tooth and thin gum tissue took part. The main goal was to measure gum appear…

This study translated the Generic Functional Index, a questionnaire that measures how well people can do daily activities, into Turkish. Researchers tested it with 200 adults who have muscle or joint problems to see if it is accurate and reliable. The goal is to give Turkish-spea…

This completed trial compared two ways of preparing the bone for dental implants: a newer technique called osseo-densification, which compacts bone rather than removing it, and the standard conventional drilling method. Eight adults needing two implants each (16 total) received o…

This study tested whether specially trained physiotherapists can safely diagnose and treat non-urgent muscle and joint pain in the emergency room, compared to standard care from doctors. 102 patients with back, neck, or shoulder pain were randomly assigned to either a physiothera…

This completed study compared how well people with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), people with other muscle or bone pain, and healthy individuals can imagine movements. Researchers used a questionnaire called the MIQ-RS to measure motor imagery skills. The goal was to see …

This study surveyed 116 adults with chronic pain at a rehabilitation clinic to understand how their pain beliefs, spiritual well-being, and attitudes toward complementary and alternative medicine are related. Participants filled out several questionnaires about their pain, mood, …

This study looked at two ways to place dental implants in the lower jaw: a flapless technique (using a small punch) and a flap technique (cutting the gum). Twenty patients were followed for 6 months to measure bone loss and implant stability. The goal was to see which method caus…
