EDENTULISM

This study is testing two types of dental implants, BIODENTOSS and DWC, in 80 people who have lost teeth. The implants are placed in the jawbone, and after healing, artificial teeth are attached. Researchers will check how well the implants stay in place, how much bone is kept, a…

This study tests three common cleaning aids—superfloss, interdental brushes, and a water flosser—in 18 adults with full-arch implant-supported dentures. Each person uses one method for three months, then switches to the next, so everyone tries all three. The goal is to find which…

This study tests whether 3D-printed surgical guides without metal sleeves can accurately place dental implants. Fifteen adults who need full-arch implants will receive implants using these guides. The researchers will compare the planned implant positions with the actual position…

This study tests whether adding texture (like bumps) to the roof of dentures helps people who have no teeth feel more comfortable and eat better. 90 adults aged 40-80 will get one of three denture designs: smooth, roughened, or a special plastic sheet. They will rate their satisf…

This study compares two ways to secure lower dentures: using one implant or two implants. Researchers want to see if one implant can provide similar comfort, satisfaction, and chewing ability as two implants. The study involves 32 adults with no teeth who already have upper and l…

This study tests three different ways of taking dental impressions to make 3D-printed implant overdentures for people with no teeth. Sixteen participants will try each method for three months, and researchers will measure how well they chew and how satisfied they are. The goal is…

This study looks at how well dental implants heal in people taking TNF-alpha inhibitors (a type of arthritis medication). Researchers will compare 15 patients on these drugs with 15 similar patients not taking them. Participants will get implants and be followed for a year with e…

This study tests whether a digital intraoral scanner can capture the shape of the mouth as accurately as the traditional border-molded impression method for making complete dentures. Ten adults who have lost all their teeth will get both types of impressions, and researchers will…

This study looks at how well the mouth heals after a tooth is pulled in younger and older adults. Half of the 12 participants will get a special blood product called platelet-rich fibrinogen placed in the extraction site. Researchers will compare healing and bone growth between t…
