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.

Summary

This clinical trial is testing whether dental implants can be placed at the same time as a sinus lift procedure, or if it is better to wait four months for the graft to heal first. The study involves adults who need sinus augmentation to support dental implants in an upper jaw with limited bone height. Participants are randomly assigned to receive implants either immediately in the fresh graft material or after the healing period. The main goal is to compare how well the implants integrate and remain stable over three years, using both clinical checks and X-ray imaging to assess bone changes.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
NanoTite dental implant placed immediately in fresh sinus augmentation material
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that placing dental implants at the same time as sinus grafting is a safe and effective option, potentially reducing the need for a second surgery and shortening overall treatment time.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small study, and the outcome depends on long-term implant stability. There is a risk that immediate placement may not integrate as well as waiting for the graft to heal, and individual results may vary.
