Doxycycline gel sponge for front tooth implants
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a special sponge containing doxycycline (a type of antibiotic) placed around a new implant in the front of the mouth helps it heal better. It's for people who need a single tooth replaced in the upper front area.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need a single front upper tooth (central incisor, canine, or premolar) that cannot be saved by a filling or crown.
- You must have enough jawbone to support the implant, and the bone must be at least 1 mm thick on the outside (cheek side).
- The gap between the tooth socket and the implant must be 2 mm or more at the top part of the socket.
- You must be a non-smoker with good oral hygiene.
- You cannot have active infections, be pregnant, or have uncontrolled diabetes, autoimmune disease, or other serious health problems.
