Dental implant placement depth may affect long-term bone stability
NCT ID NCT06760442
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at how the position of a dental implant affects bone loss around it. Researchers will compare placing the implant level with the bone versus slightly below it in the lower jaw. 28 adults who have had bone grafting will be followed for 18 months to measure bone changes and patient satisfaction.
