New MRI for Upper Jaw and Sinus Images
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are missing one or more teeth in the upper back part of your mouth (premolar or molar area).
- You have already had a cone-beam CT scan of that area.
- You do not have any serious health condition (like diabetes or rheumatoid arthritis) that could affect your gums.
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are willing to sign a consent form.

This study tests a new digital method to record how your upper and lower jaws fit together when you are missing back teeth. It may help make your dental treatment more accurate and comfortable.
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.
This trial compares a new dental MRI technique to a low-dose CT scan for diagnosing mouth and jaw problems. It may offer a safer, radiation-free alternative for patients with soft tissue issues.
This study tests whether a special MRI machine can take detailed images of teeth and jaws for routine dental care. It may help find problems without using X-rays.
This study uses real-time MRI to take detailed images of your jaw joint (the temporomandibular joint) to better understand its normal and painful variations. It may help if you have jaw pain or clicking, but you don't need to have a problem to join.
This trial tests a way to place dental implants in the upper jaw where bone is thin (4-6 mm height) without needing a bone graft. It uses special self-tapping implants to lift the sinus floor gently through the implant site.
