Custom healing caps for immediate dental implants
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether using a custom-made healing cap right after placing a dental implant helps the gum and bone heal better around the implant. It may be a good option if you need a molar or premolar removed and want an implant placed immediately.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 25 years or older.
- You need a molar or premolar tooth extracted (top or bottom jaw).
- You have at least 2 mm of firm, attached gum tissue around that tooth.
- You smoke fewer than 10 cigarettes a day, or don't smoke at all.
- You are not pregnant or nursing, and you don't have any condition that would make surgery unsafe (like severe bone disease or taking certain bone medications).

This study tests a new type of healing cap for dental implants placed right after a tooth is removed. It aims to preserve the natural gum and bone shape for a better final 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 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.
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 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 study compares how well gum tissue heals around different types of healing caps placed on dental implants. It may help you if you have a recently placed implant that meets certain space and strength requirements.
