Gum healing with a custom zirconia healing cap
Part of Genetic & congenital, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests how well the gum tissue heals around a special custom healing cap made from a strong white material (zirconia composite) placed on a dental implant. It may be a good option if you need a single tooth replaced and have healthy gums and bone.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between ages 20 and 50
- Be in good general health (no serious medical conditions)
- Have a missing tooth that can be replaced with a standard implant (no extra bone or gum surgery needed)
- Have healthy teeth next to the gap and at least 6 other natural teeth on the same jaw
- Not smoke, and not be pregnant or breastfeeding
- Have good oral hygiene and a mouth opening of at least 30mm

This trial compares two types of custom healing caps (PEEK or titanium) placed on dental implants in the front part of the mouth. It's for people who need a single implant and have good bone and gum health.
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 how well the gum and bone around dental implants heal when using zirconia (a white ceramic) versus standard metal abutments. It aims to see if zirconia leads to healthier tissues around single-tooth replacements.
This study compares how well gum tissue heals around different types of healing caps placed on dental implants. It may help you if you have a recently placed implant that meets certain space and strength requirements.
This study tests whether using a custom-made healing cap right after placing a dental implant helps the gum and bone heal better around the implant. It may be a good option if you need a molar or premolar removed and want an implant placed immediately.
This study tests a new type of healing cap for dental implants placed right after a tooth is removed. It aims to preserve the natural gum and bone shape for a better final result.
