Can a new ceramic crown make Same-Day implant restorations stronger and more beautiful?
NCT ID NCT05752539
First seen Aug 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 28, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study follows adults aged 18 to 75 who receive a CEREC Tessera crown on a single dental implant. Researchers use a standard checklist to rate the crowns' appearance and function, and they also track bone changes around the implant. The goal is to see how well these digitally made ceramic crowns hold up in everyday use.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- CEREC Tessera crowns (advanced lithium disilicate) placed on dental implants using a digital workflow
- What this could lead to
- If the crowns hold up well, dentists may gain a reliable, same-day option for restoring single implants with strong and good-looking ceramic crowns.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small observational study, so results may not apply to all patients. Crowns could chip, loosen, or cause gum irritation, and long-term performance is still uncertain.

Inclusion Criteria: * Adults aged 18-75 years. * Willing and able to sign and date the informed consent form and HIPAA form. * Have a single implant that has been successfully osseointegrated and deemed ready for restoration by the surgeon placing the implant. (A maximum of two single dental implant restorations per subject will be restored.) * Have a single implant that is acceptable to be restored with a digital workflow using the CEREC system. * Have a single implant to be restored with a screw retained advanced lithium disilicate crown. * Have a single implant with at least one adjacent tooth contact and with an occlusal contact. Exclusion Criteria: * Not willing to participate in the clinical investigation or not able to understand the content of the clinical investigation. * Unlikely to be able to comply with clinical investigation procedures according to the Principle Investigator's/Co-investigator's judgement. * Unable or unwilling to return for recall appointments for a period of 5 years. * Severe non-compliance to Clinical Investigation Protocol as judged by the PI or Co-investigators. * Women who self-report that they are possibly pregnant, pregnant, or lactating, as elective dental treatment is not indicated at these times. * Previous enrollment in the present clinical investigation. * Involvement in the planning and conduct of the clinical investigation (applies to both Dentsply Sirona personnel and from the clinical investigation site).
