What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only This study
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial tests whether a special drilling method called osseodensification improves the stability of dental implants placed right after a lower molar is pulled. Twenty adults who need a molar extraction and immediate implant will be randomly assigned to receive either osseodensification or conventional drilling. Researchers will measure implant stability and bone changes over six months to see which technique works better.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
osseodensification drilling procedure
What this could lead to
If osseodensification proves superior, it could lead to more stable dental implants and better long-term outcomes for people needing immediate tooth replacement.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 20 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The procedure is surgical, with risks like infection or implant failure.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: Adults aged 20 years - 50 years. Patients requiring extraction of a mandibular first or second molar with immediate implant placement. Presence of sufficient interradicular and apical bone to achieve primary implant stability following immediate implant placement. Adequate bone dimensions to accommodate the planned dental implant without the need for extensive bone augmentation. Good oral hygiene and willingness to comply with the study protocol and follow-up visits. Ability to understand the study procedures and provide written informed consent. \- Exclusion Criteria: Uncontrolled systemic diseases or medical conditions contraindicating oral surgery or implant placement. Pregnancy or lactation. Current smokers or tobacco users. Untreated active periodontal disease or poor oral hygiene. Acute infection or extensive pathology at the implant site that would preclude immediate implant placement. History of radiotherapy to the head and neck region or treatment with intravenous bisphosphonates or other medications known to adversely affect bone healing. Bruxism or parafunctional habits likely to compromise implant success. Inability or unwillingness to attend scheduled follow-up visits or comply with study requirements. \-
