What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 is testing whether waiting 4 months instead of the usual 6 months after a tooth extraction is safe and effective for placing a dental implant. Forty adults who need a single tooth replaced will be randomly assigned to either the shorter or standard wait time. Researchers will measure bone changes and implant stability using X-rays and other tests to see if the faster approach works just as well.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Vega Plus implant system (Klockner)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could allow patients to get dental implants sooner after a tooth extraction, reducing overall treatment time while maintaining good bone and implant stability.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Shortening the healing time could risk poorer bone support or implant failure.

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Age: ≥ 18 years. * Good general health. * Need of extraction of incisors, canines or premolars due to carious lesion, endodontic complication, root fracture or prosthetic reason. * Presence of three intact socket walls after tooth extraction with a defect of 50% or more of the buccal wall. * Need of single-tooth implant treatment, with presence of adjacent teeth and opposing occluding teeth (for measurement stent indexing). * Enough available bone assessed on CBCT to place implants with 3.6 mm diameter and 10 mm in length. * Periodontal health in intact or reduced periodontium. * Full-mouth plaque and bleeding scores \< 20%. * Able and willing to follow study procedures and instructions. Exclusion Criteria: * \< 18 years. * Compromised health. Existence of any systemic condition such as uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, cancer, HIV, disorders that compromise wound healing, chronic high dose steroid therapy, intravenous and oral bisphosphonate therapy, bone metabolic diseases, history of irradiation of the head and neck area, or any other immunosuppressive therapy that would contraindicate oral surgical treatment. * Absence of any adjacent teeth or the opposing occluding teeth. * The hopeless tooth is a molar.
