3D-Printed guides may improve dental implant success and reduce pain
NCT ID NCT07149987
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether using a 3D-printed surgical guide helps place dental implants more precisely than the traditional freehand method. Thirty adults with missing upper teeth received implants either with or without the guide. Researchers measured implant stability right after surgery and later, as well as pain levels, to see which approach worked better.
