This trial tests whether treating dental implants with ultraviolet (UV) light before placing them helps them heal better and stay stable compared to standard implants. It may be a good fit if you are missing teeth in the back of your lower jaw and are in generally good health.
This trial tests if a special light treatment (photodynamic therapy) can help treat infection and inflammation around dental implants without surgery. It may be an option for people with mild to moderate peri-implantitis who don't smoke and have healthy gums otherwise.
This study tests a home-use light therapy device that uses two types of light to reduce gum inflammation around dental implants. It may help people with peri-implant mucositis, a common condition where the gums around implants become swollen and bleed.
This trial tests whether a special light treatment (photodynamic therapy) you can use at home can help reduce inflammation around dental implants (peri-implant mucositis). It's designed for people with early gum problems around implants, before they get worse.
This study tests a special light-activated treatment (antibacterial photodynamic therapy) to fight infection around dental implants. It may be an option for people with moderate to severe implant-related gum disease who are not smokers and do not have diabetes.
This study tests different methods to clean and treat dental implants that have developed an infection around them (peri-implantitis). The goal is to find the best way to remove harmful bacteria and save your implant.
