3D dental implants for severe bone loss
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests a new type of dental implant that sits on top of the jawbone under the gums, which may help people who have severe bone loss in the upper jaw and cannot get regular implants.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a 3D CT scan (not a 2D X-ray) of your upper jaw
- Your upper jawbone is severely shrunken (classified as Class 4 or 5)
- You have no natural teeth left in your upper jaw (edentulous)

This trial tests a 3D-printed scaffold that dissolves over time to help regrow jawbone for dental implants. It is for people in Valdivia, Chile, who need bone buildup in the lower jaw.
This trial is testing a type of dental implant for people missing one or more teeth in the back of the jaw. It aims to see how well the implant holds up over time and whether the surrounding bone stays healthy.
This trial tests a fully digital method for placing dental implants in people who are missing all teeth on one or both jaws. It aims to see if the digital approach is accurate and reliable.
This trial compares two types of artificial tooth restorations (made from resin or zirconia) placed on dental implants that have already fused with your jawbone. The study tests how well these 3D-printed restorations work and last over time.
This trial compares two ways of placing a dental implant in the jawbone to see which leads to less bone loss around the implant. It may help if you are missing a back tooth and have enough jawbone after a bone graft.
This trial tests two ways to rebuild bone in the back lower jaw using special barriers (custom 3D zirconia or titanium mesh) to support a dental implant. It may help if you have severe bone loss and want an implant.
