NCT ID NCT07196293

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
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This study tested two low-cost materials—light-cure composite and Protemp—for making custom healing abutments after dental implant surgery. Thirty adults received one of the two materials, and researchers measured gum inflammation, pocket depth, aesthetics, and pain. The goal is to find a practical, affordable alternative to expensive options like PEEK, helping dentists create better-looking and healthier gum contours around implants.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
bulk fill composite and bis-acryl composite resin (Protemp)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide dentists with a low-cost, reliable way to create custom healing abutments that improve gum health and appearance around dental implants.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The materials are already in use, so no major breakthrough is expected.
