Comparing two dental cap materials for implant-supported dentures
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Hormones & metabolism, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests if one type of cap (acetal resin or nylon) is better at preserving bone around implants that support a denture in the lower jaw. It may help people with no lower teeth who are getting implant-supported dentures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have no teeth left in your lower jaw.
- You have enough bone in your lower jaw for implants.
- Your upper and lower teeth meet in a normal bite pattern (Angle's Class I).
- There is enough space between your jaws for the denture parts.
