Probe Material Effect on Implant Gums Measurement
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares how different materials used for probing around dental implants affect accuracy. It is for people with a single implant (with a screw-retained crown, no abutment) that has been in use for at least a year and is either healthy or has only mild gum inflammation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older.
- You have a single dental implant with a screw-retained crown that attaches directly to the implant (no abutment piece).
- The implant has been in use for at least one year.
- You have not taken antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications in the last 3 months.
- Your implant is either healthy or has only mild inflammation (mucositis) – no deep pockets or major bone loss.

This study looks at how gums react to plaque buildup around dental implants that were previously treated for infection. It may help understand if one treatment method leads to healthier gums.
This study checks how short dental implants (6 mm or less) compare to standard ones (over 8 mm) by looking at gum health and certain biomarkers in saliva or gum fluid. If you have implants, this could help understand which type works best over time.
This study compares different tools for cleaning between the teeth around a single back dental implant. The goal is to see which device best reduces gum inflammation (mucositis) around the implant.
This study looks at how often gum inflammation (peri-implant mucositis) happens around dental implants in people who previously had gum disease and are now in maintenance care. The results may help clinicians spot risk earlier and improve oral care around implants.
This study compares two different surgical approaches to treat peri-implantitis, an infection/inflammation around dental implants. You may be enrolled because you have a qualifying implant and meet health and medication requirements.
This trial tests whether using a small piece of tissue from your own body can improve the gum around dental implants. It might help if you have thin or narrow gum tissue.
