Dental bridge study tests best cementing method for stronger smiles
NCT ID NCT07448701
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at two different ways to cement dental bridges onto titanium supports: one done outside the mouth on a model, and one done inside the mouth by the dentist. Thirty adults with missing teeth who already have two implants will get two identical bridges, each cemented using one of the methods. The goal is to measure tiny movements (microstrain) around the implants to see which technique puts less stress on the teeth.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Adults (≥18 years old) in good general health. * Presence of an edentulous space requiring rehabilitation with a three-unit implant-supported fixed bridge. * Presence of two already osseointegrated Essential Cone implants (Klockner) indicated for a three-unit implant-supported restoration in the edentulous area. * Ability and willingness to participate and attend study visits and follow-up. * Signed informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * ASA III or ASA IV. * Current or previous treatment with bisphosphonates. * Smoking \>10 cigarettes/day. * Extraction in the study area \<3 months before implant placement with incomplete healing. * Guided bone regeneration in the study area with \<6 months of healing time. * Signs of active periodontal disease (e.g., poor plaque control and/or bleeding on probing above acceptable levels).
