Scientists watch bone and gums regrow after new dental implant technique
NCT ID NCT06885983
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how bone and soft tissue heal after using a special collagen membrane during dental implant surgery. Researchers will follow 90 adults who need implants and have thin jawbone. They will use scans and digital tools to measure new bone and gum growth over time.
