First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how the size of the connector piece (abutment) on a dental implant affects the bone around it. Researchers will place implants in 40 adults with a missing back tooth and use either a narrow or regular abutment. Over 24 months, they will measure bone changes on X-rays to see which size leads to better bone stability.
