Summary

This study looks at the best time to put a temporary tooth on a new dental implant in the lower jaw. About 100 adults who need a first molar replaced will get an implant placed 12 weeks after tooth extraction. Half will get a temporary tooth right away (immediate loading), and the other half will wait 4 weeks (early loading). The main goal is to see if the implant is still healthy and in place after one year.
