Custom 3D printed markers aim to perfect front tooth implants

NCT ID NCT07199153

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a custom 3D printed marker can help dentists place a single front tooth implant more accurately. Ten people with a missing front tooth will get a 3D printed marker made from their scans, which guides the dentist during surgery. After the implant, a CT scan checks how close the actual placement matches the plan. The goal is to see if this method is precise enough for everyday use.

Active substance

3D printed custom registration marker

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a more accurate and reproducible way to place dental implants in the front upper jaw, potentially improving cosmetic outcomes.

What could go wrong

This is a very small early study with only 10 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The marker's accuracy depends on the quality of scans and may not work for all jaw shapes.
