Comparing fully vs. partially guided dental implant placement
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two methods of placing dental implants: one uses a custom guide to plan the entire surgery, the other uses a guide only for part of the procedure. It aims to see which approach places the implant more accurately, especially for people with challenging jawbone conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have one or more missing teeth that need to be replaced.
- You can open your mouth at least 30 millimeters (about 1.2 inches).
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have limited jawbone width or height, or an unusual bone shape that may affect implant placement.
- You are not a heavy smoker (more than 10 cigarettes per day).
- You do not have uncontrolled diabetes, metabolic bone disease, or a history of radiation to the head/neck.

This study compares two different techniques for placing a dental implant to replace a single missing tooth. Researchers want to see which method places the implant more accurately and leads to better healing.
This trial is testing a way to use 3D-printed guides to place dental implants more accurately. It may be a good option for people who are missing one or more teeth and have good oral health.
This study compares two methods for placing dental implants in the back of your mouth: one using a surgical robot and one using a static (non-moving) guide. Both aim to make implant placement more precise and predictable.
This trial tests whether using artificial intelligence (AI) to plan dental implant placement is more accurate than the usual method. It may help people who need a dental implant in the back of the mouth.
This trial compares two methods for placing dental implants in the upper jaw: dynamic navigation (real-time guidance) versus static navigation (using a surgical guide). It aims to see which technique is more accurate for people missing one tooth between the right and left second premolars.
This study compares two types of guided surgery methods for placing dental implants in the back of the jaw (where there are missing teeth). It aims to find which technique works better for patients who need implants in that area.
