First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 28 times

Summary

This study looked at how bone grows into the gap between a dental implant and the tooth socket wall when the implant is placed immediately after tooth removal. Researchers measured the gap size using 3D X-rays (CBCT) before and after surgery in 42 people. The goal was to understand how the gap size affects new bone formation, which helps improve the look and stability of the implant.
