Timing of dental implant placement and early healing
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial compares placing a dental implant right after a tooth is pulled versus waiting for the socket to heal first. It aims to see which timing leads to better healing at the molecular level.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 25 years or older and in good general health.
- You should have a tooth in the front area (from incisor to second premolar) that needs to be removed and replaced with a single dental implant.
- You must be a non-smoker (or have quit at least 3 months ago) and not use vapes or e-cigarettes.
- You should have good oral hygiene (plaque scores 20% or less).
- You must not have any disease that seriously affects bone healing (like osteoporosis, diabetes, or rheumatoid arthritis), and you should not be taking certain medications that affect bone or blood clotting.

This study compares two types of dental implant surfaces to see which helps the implant bond better with the jawbone after a tooth is pulled. It may help you if you need a single front tooth or first premolar replaced.
This trial compares immediate dental implants (placed right after a tooth is pulled) vs delayed implants (placed later), with or without a special bone-preserving technique. It is designed for people who need to have a single upper tooth removed and want to know which approach gives the best result.
This study compares how well dental implants integrate into bone depending on the surgical technique used and implant position. If you need tooth extraction and implant replacement, this research may help dentists improve implant success rates.
This study compares two types of bone-graft materials used to rebuild the bone after a tooth is removed, so that a dental implant can be placed right away. If successful, this could mean fewer surgeries and faster recovery for people who need a single tooth replaced.
This trial compares immediate digital workflows to traditional methods for placing a single dental implant in a back tooth site. It aims to see if digital planning makes the procedure faster, more comfortable, or more accurate for you.
This study tests if placing a dental implant sooner (about 6-8 weeks after tooth removal and socket preservation) works well with a specific implant type. It is for people who need to replace a single front tooth, canine, or premolar and have good bone and gum health.
