DENTAL IMPLANT

This study looks at whether Nobel N1 dental implants can safely have a permanent crown placed just 6 weeks after surgery, instead of the usual longer wait. About 50 adults missing a single back tooth will be enrolled. Researchers will check if the implants stay healthy and stable…

This study tests whether applying a 1% metformin gel to dental implants helps them stay stable and improves bone density around the implant. About 34 adults who need a tooth replacement will be split into two groups: one gets the gel, the other does not. Researchers will measure …

This study tests if adding a special growth factor (rhPDGF) to donated bone particles helps rebuild jawbone better than using just salt water. About 44 adults who need dental implants but have thin jawbone will take part. Researchers will measure new bone growth after 4 months us…

This study tests whether adding a small gum graft to bone grafting makes dental implants in the front teeth look better. 28 adults needing a single front tooth implant will be randomly assigned to get bone grafting alone or with an added gum graft. The main goal is to see which m…

This study compares how quickly people can bite and release when wearing a lower denture held in place by either two regular-sized implants or four smaller mini-implants. The goal is to see which type of implant allows for better chewing function. The study will include 28 adults…

This study tests a new device called the Falcon system that helps dentists place dental implants more accurately. About 75 adults with some missing teeth will get implants using this computer-guided tool. The goal is to see if it leads to safer and more precise implant placement …

This study tests whether metal or plastic surgical guides are better for placing special cheekbone (zygomatic) implants in people with severe upper jaw bone loss. Four adults will get implants on both sides of their jaw—one side using a metal guide, the other using a plastic guid…

This study tests two ways to thicken the gum tissue around special dental implants (zygomatic implants) in people whose upper jawbone has shrunk. Four participants will receive both techniques—one on each side of the mouth—to see which method leads to healthier, thicker gum tissu…

This study compares two types of dental implant surfaces to see which one better preserves the bone around the implant, looks more natural, and causes less inflammation. About 39 adults who need a single front tooth replaced will receive one of the two implant types. Researchers …

This study compares two methods for placing dental implants: one uses a custom-made guide to drill the hole, the other uses a computer screen to guide the dentist in real time. Researchers will check how accurate each method is and how satisfied patients are. The study involves 2…

This study looks at whether placing a dental implant right after a tooth is pulled (immediate) or waiting a few months (delayed) changes how the mouth heals. Researchers will measure healing markers in saliva and gum fluid from 24 adults over 30 days. The goal is to understand th…

This study collects information from routine dental implant treatments at a specialist clinic to see how well they work and how satisfied patients are. About 300 people will take part, and researchers will look at things like implant health and patient feedback using a simple que…

This study looks at whether 3D X-rays (CBCT) can help dentists know when it's safe to place a dental implant after a sinus lift surgery. About 25 adults who need a sinus lift for an implant will get a 3D scan right after surgery and again 6 months later. The goal is to measure ho…
