Toothless upper jaw implant study without bone grafts
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a way to place dental implants in the upper jaw where bone is thin (4-6 mm height) without needing a bone graft. It uses special self-tapping implants to lift the sinus floor gently through the implant site.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 80 years old.
- You have no teeth in your upper back jaw and the bone there is only 4-6 millimeters tall.
- You are generally healthy (classified as ASA I or II).
- You are willing to come for follow-up appointments after the implant.
- You do not smoke heavily (no more than 10 cigarettes per day).

This study tests a technology that uses a computer-guided system (dynamic navigation) to place multiple implants in the upper jaw of people who have no teeth left. It aims to improve placement accuracy and make the surgery safer.
This study compares two ways to place dental implants in the upper jaw when there isn't much bone. One way uses bone grafting material, the other doesn't. It aims to see which method works better for people with a thin upper jaw.
This trial tests a new type of bone graft material for opening the upper-jaw sinus to make room for dental implants. It is for people with very little bone in the back of the upper jaw who need implants for missing teeth.
This trial compares two ways to place dental implants in the upper jaw where there is not enough bone: one uses a special clotting substance (PRF) and the other does not. The goal is to see which method works better.
This trial tests a new method to help people who have lost bone in the upper jaw get dental implants. If your jawbone is too thin, they will use a small titanium mesh to support the sinus lining and make room for an implant.
This study tests a two-stage method to build up bone in the upper jaw for dental implants using either donor bone or a mix of your own bone and donor bone. It may help people with very little bone in the back of the upper jaw get implants successfully.
