Could ozone gas make dental implants stronger?
NCT ID NCT07687680
First seen Jul 07, 2026 · Last updated Jul 21, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tests whether using ozone gas to disinfect the implant site before placing a dental implant leads to better stability compared to standard disinfection methods. Healthy adults who need at least two dental implants will receive ozone at one site and standard care at the other. Implant stability is measured right after placement and again three months later to see if ozone makes a difference.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- ozone gas
- What this could lead to
- If ozone disinfection improves implant stability, it could lead to better success rates for dental implants and faster healing.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 51 participants. Ozone may not provide any benefit over standard disinfection, and there could be unknown risks from ozone exposure.
