UV light and timing: could a faster dental implant work better?

NCT ID NCT07700914

First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial tests three different schedules for placing permanent teeth on dental implants that have been treated with ultraviolet light. The implants are placed in the upper back jaw of people who have lost one or more teeth. Researchers will measure how stable the implants are and how much bone is lost around them 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
UV-photofunctionalized dental implants with different loading protocols (immediate, early, conventional)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help determine the best timing for placing permanent teeth on UV-treated implants, potentially shortening treatment time and improving implant stability.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 60 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. Different loading protocols carry risks of implant failure or bone loss.
