This study tests two types of dental implant treatments for replacing missing back teeth in the upper jaw. One uses special UV light to clean the implant surface, and the other adds melatonin to help healing. It aims to see which works better for long-term success.
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 that kills bacteria to treat inflammation around dental implants. If you have implant-related gum disease, this could help reduce bleeding and swelling without needing extra clinic visits.
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 a special surface treatment on the part of the implant that connects to the crown. It looks at how well gum and bone cells attach to this surface, aiming to improve healing and long-term success.
