Dental Implant clinical trials

Bacteria changes in gum disease patients getting all dental implants

This study looks at how bacteria in your mouth change when all your teeth are removed and replaced with dental implants. If you have severe gum disease and need all your teeth extracted, joining this trial could help researchers understand your healing process.

Guided sinus lift with natural blood proteins for dental implants

This trial tests a new method to lift the sinus floor using your own blood proteins, creating more bone for dental implants. It may help people who need implants in the upper back jaw but don't have enough bone height.

Oxygen therapy around healing collar after surgery

This trial tests whether a topical oxygen therapy applied around a customized healing collar helps improve healing after dental implant surgery. It is for adults in good health who are ready to commit to follow-up visits.

Comparing two doses of dexamethasone for dental implant pain

This study tests whether a higher dose of dexamethasone (8 mg) works better than a lower dose (4 mg) for reducing pain after getting a single dental implant. It may help find the best way to manage discomfort after surgery.

Magnetic mallet vs. drilling for dental implants in soft jawbone

This trial compares two techniques for placing dental implants in the upper jaw where the bone is very soft (type D4). It tests whether a magnetic mallet (a tool that uses gentle taps) is better than conventional drilling for placing implants in this challenging bone type.

Using your own blood clot to help bone heal after tooth extraction

This study tests whether placing a special clot made from your own blood (called Platelet Rich Fibrin) into the socket after a tooth extraction helps the bone heal better for a future dental implant.

Long-term study of dental implants after 10 to 22 years

This study looks at how well dental implants work and how healthy the mouth stays more than 10 years after implant placement. The goal is to learn about implant success and any gum or bone changes over time.

Zirconia crowns on titanium abutments: 5-year study

This study checks how well a type of ceramic crown (zirconia) attached to a titanium base works for replacing a single missing back tooth. It looks at results 5 years after treatment.

Test two ways to attach dentures or implants

This trial compares two different attachment systems for people who have major problems with their upper and/or lower dentures, or who want implant-supported replacement teeth. It may help your smile and chewing by improving how the replacement teeth stay firmly in place.

Dental implants for missing back teeth: a patient experience study

This study tests how well dental implants work and how they feel for people missing back teeth. You get fixed implant-supported crowns, and the researchers want to understand your experience and how your mouth functions after treatment.

Effect of Scanning Techniques on Accuracy of Mandibular Fixed Detachable Prostheses

Bone graft with implant removal for better reimplant success

This study tests whether adding a bone graft at the same time a failed dental implant is removed helps the new implant placed later in the same spot heal better. It may be a good option if you need a failed implant replaced and want to improve bone support for the new one.

Comparison of PEEK and Conventional Dental Prostheses

This study compares two types of full-arch dental prostheses (PEEK and conventional) placed on four implants in the lower jaw, to see which works better. It may be an option if you need all lower teeth replaced and have healthy jawbone.

How gum tissue reacts to different dental crown materials

This study compares how different dental crown materials affect your gums around dental implants. It may help you if you have several missing teeth and already have healed implants in good bone.

Study of dental implants with natural ligament for single tooth replacement

This trial tests a new type of dental implant that includes a ligament (like a natural tooth's shock absorber). It's for people who need to have a single front or side tooth pulled and have healthy gum and bone around the area. The goal is to see if this implant works well and stays healthy over time.

Dental screening before heart valve surgery

This trial tests whether a dental checkup before heart valve surgery can improve recovery and prevent complications. If you are scheduled for a heart valve procedure, you may be able to join.

Accuracy of gum probing around dental implants

This study looks at how accurately dentists can measure the gum pocket depth around dental implants, and what factors might affect that measurement. It may help improve care for people with implants who need their crown removed for a check or repair.

Comparing mini implant placements for fixing upper teeth overbite

This study tests two ways of placing small temporary anchors (mini implants) in the jaw to help pull upper front teeth back into a better position. It is for patients who have finished growing and have a Class II overbite, to see which anchor location works best.

Test glycine powder and a special brush for oral care

This trial studies whether using glycine powder and an angled implant brush helps keep dental implants healthy in people following the Columbus Bridge ProtocolTM. It may help by improving daily oral hygiene around implants and reducing implant problems.

Do gums around dental implants affect health and comfort?

This study looks at how the amount of firm, attached gum (called keratinized mucosa) around a dental implant affects gum health and how you feel about it. It may help you understand if your implant site needs more gum tissue for better long-term results.

Bone graft with platelet gel for immediate dental implants

This trial tests whether adding a special platelet-rich fibrin (I-PRF) to a standard bone graft (FDBA) helps preserve bone around dental implants placed right after a tooth is pulled. If you have a damaged single-rooted tooth and are in good health, you may be able to join.

Dental MRI to help diagnose jaw, gum, and tooth problems

This study tests whether a special dental MRI can give useful pictures to diagnose jaw joint problems, tooth-related tissue changes, and gum/inflammation issues, and to help plan some dental implant treatments. If you need imaging for these reasons, the trial may help doctors choose the best next treatment by using clearer, dedicated scans.
