New study to measure if first dentures calm patient fears
NCT ID NCT07597057
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether getting complete dentures for the first time changes how anxious patients feel about dental visits. Researchers will measure anxiety in 70 adults who have lost all their teeth at two points: when they first get impressions made and when they receive their new dentures. The goal is to understand if the denture process itself affects dental fear.
