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.

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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This completed study looked at whether adjusting the bite of dentures using a digital device can affect jawbone density in people with no teeth. Sixteen adults aged 45 to 75 received dentures with a precise bite adjustment on one side. Researchers used X-ray analysis to compare bone density changes. The goal was to see if better bite balance helps preserve jawbone health.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Digital occlusal adjustment device (Occulosense)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that precise bite adjustments help maintain jawbone health in denture wearers.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, completed study with only 16 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It measures bone density changes, not long-term health outcomes.
