Dental implant battle: which technique gives the strongest hold?
NCT ID NCT07442604
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 60 people who needed dental implants for missing back teeth in the upper jaw. It compared three methods: using Densah burs, a magnetic mallet, or conventional drilling. The goal was to see which technique made the implant most stable right after placement, at one month, and at two months. Results help dentists choose the best approach for early loading of implants.
