New treatment option for Edentulous Jaw
Official title Primary Stability and Peri-implant Outcomes of Short Implants in Post-extraction Single-tooth Sites
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07177521
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The placement of short implants in post-extraction sockets is a valuable option when residual bone height is limited, minimizing morbidity and treatment time. The management of the peri-implant gap and soft tissues may influence primary stability, hard/soft tissue remodeling, and implant success.
