Recruiting studies
- NCT07579377Recruiting
Denture design and satisfaction in older adults
This study tests whether a specific denture design feature (palatal rugae patterns) affects how satisfied patients are with their new complete dentures and their quality of life. Complete dentures replace all missing teeth in the upper or lower jaw.

Testing long-lasting partial dentures for back teeth
This study looks at how well a specific type of fixed partial denture works over about 3 years. It may help people missing two back teeth next to each other by improving comfort and chewing with a stable dental replacement.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT07303530Recruiting
Effect of printing layer thickness on fungus growth in 3D-printed dentures
This trial tests how the thickness of printing layers in 3D-printed dentures affects the growth of Candida albicans, a type of fungus that can cause infections. It aims to find the best design to keep your mouth healthier.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges Any age - NCT07364006Recruiting
Accuracy of metal-free guided implant surgery
This study tests a new way to place dental implants in people who need a full set of replacement teeth. It compares the accuracy of a method that uses a metal guide vs. one without it, to see if the simpler method works just as well.
Madrid, MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT06105489Recruiting
Comparing two sinus lift surgery techniques
This trial compares two surgical methods for lifting the sinus membrane to add bone for dental implants. It may help if you have very little bone left in your upper jaw back teeth area.
PadovaAges 18 years+ - NCT07208812Recruiting
3D-printed lower dentures: comparing impression methods
This study compares two ways of making dental impressions for 3D-printed overdentures (removable tooth replacements held by implants). It looks for people who need new lower-jaw implants and are otherwise healthy.
Al Mansurah, Dakahlia GovernorateAges 45 years+ - NCT06846619Recruiting
Testing two ways to make 3D-printed dentures
This study compares two methods for making 3D-printed dentures to see which patients like better. It aims to find which technique is more comfortable and satisfying.
CairoAges Any age - NCT07088172Recruiting
Gum graft timing for dental implants in the lower back jaw
This trial compares two different times to do a gum graft around a dental implant in the lower back jaw. It aims to find out which timing works better for patients who don't have enough thick gum tissue (less than 2 mm).
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06943846Recruiting
Platelet gel for healing after tooth removal in older adults
This study tests if a gel made from your own blood can help your gums heal faster after a back tooth is removed. It is for patients getting dental care at the University of Nebraska Medical Center.
Lincoln, NebraskaAges 14–80 - NCT07740265Recruiting
Scanning methods for accurate jaw implants
This study compares different dental scanning techniques to see which one helps make more accurate replacement teeth for people without any natural teeth. It aims to improve how well permanent implants and their attachments fit.
Tanta, Gharbia GovernorateAges 40–60 - NCT07740278Recruiting
3D-printed dentures for people without teeth
This study tests whether the way 3D-printed dentures are made affects how they fit. It aims to improve comfort and function for people who have no teeth and need a complete upper denture.
Tanta, Gharbia GovernorateAges 50–70 - NCT06755034Recruiting
Single implant to hold lower denture on preferred chewing side
This study tests whether a single dental implant placed in the canine area of your preferred chewing side can better stabilize your lower denture. It may be an option if you are at least 60 years old, have full upper and lower dentures that fit well or can be adjusted, and have healthy jawbone in the front area.
Geneva, Canton of GenevaAges 60 years+ - NCT06808724Recruiting
Effect of implant surface treatment on stability
This trial compares how different surface treatments on dental implants affect their stability. It is for people who need implants in both upper premolar/molar areas and have healed enough bone without grafts.
Trieste, TSAges 18 years+ - NCT06449443Recruiting
New MRI for Upper Jaw and Sinus Images
This study tests a new type of MRI (called zero echo time) to see if it can take clear pictures of the sinuses and teeth in the upper jaw, without using radiation. It may be an option for people who are missing back teeth and already have a CT scan of that area.
AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT07377890Recruiting
Digital vs traditional denture impressions: which is more accurate?
This study compares digital scan impressions to traditional putty impressions for making complete dentures. It aims to find out which method is more accurate for people who have no teeth left and need a full set of dentures.

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.

- How do I know if I qualify for a edentulism trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a edentulism trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
