UV-treated dental implants with or without melatonin
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests two types of dental implant treatments for replacing missing back teeth in the upper jaw. One uses special UV light to clean the implant surface, and the other adds melatonin to help healing. It aims to see which works better for long-term success.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial studies whether placing a dental implant right away or after a delay leads to better appearance and healing. It looks at cosmetic results and X-ray findings, and is for people missing one front upper tooth.
This study tests whether applying melatonin around new dental implants in the lower back teeth helps them heal and stay secure. It may improve the success of implants placed right after tooth extraction.
This study tests whether a special graft made from your own tooth material, with or without melatonin (an antioxidant), helps new dental implants integrate better into bone after tooth extraction. The goal is to improve how well implants take hold and function.
This trial compares two types of tooth implant materials for replacing a missing lower back tooth. It looks at bone health and biting strength to see which material works better.
This study tests whether taking vitamin D after getting a dental implant in the lower back teeth helps keep the bone around the implant healthy. It may help the implant stay strong and last longer.
This trial tests if taking vitamin D improves how well dental implants bond with the jawbone in people with low vitamin D levels. It may help strengthen the implant integration.
