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

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 types of dental implants for back teeth to see which one stays more stable in the bone. If you need a dental implant in your upper jaw back area, this trial might help find the best option for you.
This study compares three ways of preparing the jawbone for a dental implant in the upper back area. The goal is to see which technique makes the implant most stable right after placement and over time.
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.
This trial compares two types of dental implants—a special 'hydrophilic' surface implant and a standard titanium implant—to see which one helps your jawbone and gums heal better and stay stable. If you need to replace two or more missing teeth in your lower jaw, this study might offer you a newer implant option.
