Summary

This study compares two healing periods—4 months versus the standard 6 months—after a tooth extraction with socket preservation, before placing a dental implant. The goal is to see if the shorter wait provides similar implant stability and bone quality. Participants will be adults needing a single-tooth implant, and the trial will measure implant stability, bone changes, and tissue health over time.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Equine-derived enzymatically treated biomaterials (BIOTECK system) and OITECH implant system
What this could lead to: If successful, this could shorten the time between tooth extraction and dental implant placement, reducing patient discomfort and treatment duration.
What could go wrong: The trial is small (40 participants) and early-stage, so results may not apply broadly. There is a risk that 4-month healing may not provide the same implant stability as 6 months.
