Gum shape showdown: which healing abutment wins for dental implants?
NCT ID NCT07031232
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 08, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at how the design of temporary healing caps (abutments) placed on dental implants affects the healing and shape of the surrounding gum tissue. 75 adults getting a single implant will be split into three groups, each receiving a different type of abutment. Researchers will use 3D scans to track gum changes over a year, aiming to find which design best preserves gum volume and shape for better long-term results.
