NCT ID NCT07436533
First seen Mar 05, 2026 · Last updated Jun 24, 2026 · Updated 16 times
Summary
This study is testing a special drilling technique called osseodensification to widen a narrow jawbone so dental implants can be placed without extra bone grafting. Researchers will measure how much the bone widens in 30 adults who need implants. The goal is to see if this simpler approach works well enough to avoid a separate surgery.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Densah burs used in a special drilling technique called osseodensification
What this could lead to
If successful, this technique could offer a simpler, less invasive way to prepare the jawbone for dental implants without needing separate bone grafting surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early study with only 30 people and no comparison group. The results may not apply to everyone, and the technique might not work as well in other settings.
