Monitoring implant movement during healing after placement
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study checks whether dental implants move slightly while they heal and fuse with the jawbone. It uses two quick, painless scans (instead of X-rays) to see if any movement happens, which could help dentists improve how implants are placed for better long-term success.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You need a single dental implant (one tooth replacement).
- You are in good general health and do not have active gum disease (periodontitis).
- You agree to have two painless scans of your mouth: one right after implant placement and one a few months later.
- You are not at high risk from certain bone medications (like intravenous bisphosphonates or denosumab), are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and can tolerate the scans.

This study tests a new scanning method for people who have no teeth in either jaw. It aims to see if the scan is accurate enough to use for planning dental implants, which could help you get a better-fitting set of teeth.
This study tests whether placing a dental implant right after tooth removal and attaching a temporary crown works well when the implant is very secure from the start. It may help people who need one or more implants and want a faster approach to replacing missing teeth.
This trial compares two techniques for scanning dental implants in the upper jaw to make a new permanent bridge or denture. It aims to find which method gives a more accurate fit.
This study tests a special healing cap placed right after a tooth is removed and an implant is put in. The goal is to keep the bone and gums healthy around the implant for a better long-term result.
This study compares two types of dental implant surfaces to see which helps the implant bond better with the jawbone after a tooth is pulled. It may help you if you need a single front tooth or first premolar replaced.
This study looks at how dental implants (artificial tooth roots) are doing, especially around the gum and bone, to help keep them healthy. If you have implants that have been in place for at least 3 years, you may be able to join and get a thorough check-up.
