Comparing two methods for tooth implant with root shield
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether using a special blood and bone mixture (sticky bone) around a saved tooth fragment helps heal better than using a blood clot alone, during same-day implant placement guided by a computer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be medically healthy (ASA I or II category, meaning no serious health problems).
- You must be older than 18 years.
- You have one front tooth that cannot be saved due to deep cavity, broken root, failed root canals, or root damage.
- There must be enough bone behind the tooth and above the palate to hold the implant firmly in place.
- You cannot have an active infection or a large long-term infection at the tooth tip.
- If the tooth is fused to the bone (ankylosed) and sits too high compared to neighbors, you cannot join.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a dental procedure that combines two techniques to treat a space between the tooth and gum, known as a black triangle. It aims to improve how the gums look and heal after a hopeless front tooth is replaced.
This study tests two ways to place dental implants in the front of the mouth: one using a standard technique and one that leaves a small piece of your natural tooth (the socket shield) to help preserve the gum and bone. The goal is to see which method leads to better healing and a more natural-looking result.
This study tests a way to place a dental implant in the front upper jaw without a bone graft, comparing a technique that saves a thin layer of tooth root versus using a gum tissue graft. It aims to see which method gives better results for people who need a front tooth replaced.
This study tests a special technique for saving the thin outer layer of bone when removing a front upper tooth and placing a dental implant. The goal is to see if this 'socket shield' method helps keep the bone and gum looking natural after the implant.
This study tests a new way to place a dental implant in the upper front teeth area. It uses a special material to help the bone heal better around the implant, which may keep the area looking natural.
This trial tests two ways to support the gum around a new dental implant placed right after a tooth is pulled. It compares a special blood-clot material (L-PRF) to a connective tissue graft to see which heals better.
