Sound waves reveal hidden healing after tooth implants
NCT ID NCT05330702
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aimed to see if ultrasound could detect early changes in bone and gum after a tooth is pulled and an implant is placed right away. Some people also got a soft tissue graft to improve healing. The study was stopped early, but it planned to follow 31 adults for 6 months to see how well the implant survived and how the tissues changed.
