Comparing implant designs for full lower teeth replacement
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two types of dental implants used to support a full set of lower teeth. It looks at how the jawbone reacts over time to help determine which implant design may be more stable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are completely toothless (edentulous) in the lower jaw and can give written consent to participate.
- You have enough jawbone in the lower jaw to support implants, with a bone height of at least 12–14 mm and a width of at least 6 mm.
- You already have full upper and lower dentures, and either your lower denture has design or bite problems, or you're unhappy with how well it stays in place.
- You are not a heavy smoker (no more than 10 cigarettes per day).
- You do not have conditions that prevent implant surgery (like a weak immune system, certain bone medications, or head/neck radiation), and you don't have active infection in the implant area.

This trial compares two types of tooth implant materials for replacing a missing lower back tooth. It looks at bone health and biting strength to see which material works better.
This study compares two different materials for a full-arch hybrid prosthesis (a fixed set of teeth) supported by four implants in the lower jaw. The goal is to see which material keeps bacteria from sticking and keeps the gums around the implants healthier.
This study compares two ways to attach a lower denture to dental implants. It aims to find which method gives better fit and comfort for people who have lost all their teeth.
This study compares two ways to replace all your lower teeth: a regular set of dentures versus dentures held in place by two small implants (mini-implants). The goal is to see which option gives you a better quality of life and comfort.
This study tests whether regular or narrow dental implants work better for supporting a lower denture in people who have no teeth. It may help improve how well the denture fits and feels.
