Dental implant design and stability for lower molar replacements
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests two different designs and surface treatments of dental implants to see which one is easier to place (insertion torque) and which becomes stable faster (implant stability quotient, a measure of how well the implant holds in the bone). If you need a dental implant in a lower molar and have healthy gums, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You need a dental implant in a lower back tooth (molar) that has been healed for at least 3 months after the tooth was removed
- The spot for the implant is big enough for a 4.1 x 10 mm implant
- Your gums are healthy: bleeding on probing is less than 20%
- Your teeth are clean: plaque index is less than 25%
- You do not smoke 10 or more cigarettes per day, do not have uncontrolled gum disease or diabetes, are not an alcoholic, and are not taking medicines that slow bone healing

This study compares two different designs of dental implants to see which one stays more stable when first placed. If you need an implant in your upper back jaw, this trial could help find the best option for you.
This trial compares two drilling techniques for placing a dental implant right after removing a lower molar. It aims to see which method gives better initial stability of the implant, which is important for long-term success.
This trial compares how different surface treatments on dental implants affect their stability. It is for people who need implants in both upper premolar/molar areas and have healed enough bone without grafts.
This study compares two different implant thread designs to see which one helps the implant stay more stable in the upper jaw when placed using a bone-preserving technique called osseodensification. This could improve the long-term success of dental implants for people with limited jawbone width.
This study compares two types of dental implants to see which one helps bone grow better around the implant after a tooth is removed. If you need a tooth replaced with an implant and also need a bone graft, this study may help find the best option for you.
This trial compares different shapes and heights of the abutment (the connector piece between the implant and crown) to see how they affect gum and bone healing. It is for people who need a single or few back teeth replaced with a dental implant.
