What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at how the design of temporary healing caps (abutments) placed on dental implants affects the healing and shape of the surrounding gum tissue. 75 adults getting a single implant will be split into three groups, each receiving a different type of abutment. Researchers will use 3D scans to track gum changes over a year, aiming to find which design best preserves gum volume and shape for better long-term results.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 75 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Adults aged 18 years or older. * Patients requiring a single dental implant in a healed posterior site (maxilla or mandible). * Presence of at least 2 mm of keratinized mucosa at the implant site. * Healed alveolar ridge with sufficient bone volume for implant placement without need for guided bone regeneration. * Good general and oral health, with controlled plaque and bleeding indices. * Insertion torque ≥ 30 Ncm at the time of implant placement. * Willingness to comply with study protocol and attend scheduled follow-up visits. * Signed informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Smoking more than 10 cigarettes per day. * Uncontrolled systemic diseases (e.g., uncontrolled diabetes, immunosuppression). * History of head or neck radiation therapy. * Current or recent use of bisphosphonates. * Active periodontal disease or peri-implant infection. * Severe parafunctional habits (e.g., bruxism, clenching). * Pregnant or breastfeeding women. * Previous implant failure at the intended site.
