Study of dental implants with natural ligament for single tooth replacement
Part of Injuries & trauma, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a new type of dental implant that includes a ligament (like a natural tooth's shock absorber). It's for people who need to have a single front or side tooth pulled and have healthy gum and bone around the area. The goal is to see if this implant works well and stays healthy over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have exactly one tooth (from your front incisors to premolars) that needs to be pulled because of decay or fracture, and the gum around its root is healthy.
- The teeth next to that tooth are natural, healthy, and looking normal on X-rays and exams.
- You are 18 or older.
- You are not a smoker, not pregnant, not receiving certain medications (like bisphosphonates or chemotherapy/radiation), and do not have uncontrolled diabetes or bleeding disorders.
- Your jawbone is done growing, and you are not currently in braces or wearing a retainer.

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 trial tests a new type of dental implant that is shaped like a natural tooth root, placed immediately after removing a damaged tooth. It may be a good option if you need a single tooth replaced and have healthy bone and gums.
This trial tests two ways to place a dental implant right after pulling a front tooth that can't be saved. One method keeps a small piece of the tooth root (called a socket shield) and places a temporary crown right away. The other method waits a few months before placing the implant.
This trial compares two types of dental implants (variable-thread and standard) for replacing a single missing back tooth. It aims to see which implant works better for long-term stability and healing.
This study compares two types of bone-graft materials used to rebuild the bone after a tooth is removed, so that a dental implant can be placed right away. If successful, this could mean fewer surgeries and faster recovery for people who need a single tooth replaced.
This trial is testing a type of dental implant for people missing one or more teeth in the back of the jaw. It aims to see how well the implant holds up over time and whether the surrounding bone stays healthy.
