This early-stage trial tests Neobone®, a bone graft material, to see if it helps preserve the jawbone after a tooth is pulled. Thirty adults who need a tooth extraction will either receive the graft or let the socket heal naturally. Researchers will use 3D scans to measure bone v…

This early-stage trial tests whether a bone graft material called beta-TCP (Neocement Inject P®) can better preserve the jawbone after a tooth is pulled, compared to letting the socket heal naturally. Thirty adults needing a tooth extraction will be randomly assigned to receive t…

This study tests a special magnesium membrane (NOVAMag SHIELD) used with bone graft material to support immediate dental implants in people with severe bone defects after tooth extraction. The trial involves 40 adults who need a tooth removed in the front area and have significan…

This study tests whether adding a light-activated treatment (photodynamic therapy) to standard deep cleaning helps fight infections around dental implants better than cleaning alone. Forty adults with peri-implantitis will receive one of the two treatments, and researchers will m…

This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS can reduce the urge to use social media and lower addiction severity. Sixty university students with moderate to severe social media addiction will be randomly assigned to receive real tDCS, a sham (f…

This study tests a 12-session training program that uses heart rate feedback to help security personnel manage stress and prevent burnout. About 50 Portuguese National Guard members will learn breathing techniques to improve their body's stress response. The goal is to see if thi…

This study investigates whether adding natural variability (fractal-like patterns) to metronome-paced strength training leads to faster and better brain adaptations compared to standard pacing. Sixty healthy adults aged 18-40 will perform leg extension exercises three times a wee…

This study looks at how people who have had ACL surgery experience fear of movement. Researchers want to see if the usual questionnaire captures this fear accurately, or if watching and anticipating specific sports moves gives a better picture. About 21 participants will have the…

This study compares two types of visual cues during treadmill walking in 36 athletes who had ACL reconstruction. One cue is a steady beat (isochronous), the other has natural fluctuations (fractal). The goal is to see which better restores natural walking patterns and brain activ…

This study looks at whether the way older adults focus their attention during strength training affects how they walk. Forty-five healthy older adults will do calf raises for 4 weeks, either focusing on the muscle itself or on an external cue. Researchers will measure changes in …
