-
Effect of four post-extraction socket approaches on preserving the ridge after tooth removal
This study tests four ways to care for an extraction socket to see which best preserves the jawbone and gum after tooth removal for future implants.
-
Immediate molar implants with customized healing abutments in different socket classes
This study tests placing an implant right after extracting a back tooth and using a custom healing cap to shape the gum from day one, in people needing posterior implants.
-
Use of enamel matrix derivative with immediate implants in the lower back teeth
This trial tests whether applying enamel matrix derivative at the time of immediate mandibular molar implants helps osseointegration and healing.
-
Soft tissue augmentation around dental implants using connective tissue graft or less invasive approaches
This trial tests three ways to increase the soft tissue around a dental implant in adults with thin gums to see which method works best.
-
Biodontoss and DWC dental implants and superstructures in adults needing tooth replacement
This PMCF study tests whether BIODENTOSS and DWC dental implants and their superstructures are safe and effective for adults with tooth loss over 24 months.
-
Temporary dental crowns and bridges using ON DENT materials
This PMCF study tests whether ON DENT temporary crowns and bridges perform safely and survive as patients wear them while awaiting final prostheses.
-
How full-arch dental implants affect oral health quality of life
This study will test whether full-arch implant-supported prostheses improve oral health-related quality of life and satisfaction for people who are missing most or all teeth.
-
Straumann Falcon dynamic navigation for guided dental implant placement
This study will test if the Straumann Falcon navigation system helps dentists place dental implants more safely and more accurately in adults missing some teeth.
-
Autotransplantation of a patient's own tooth using simulated open apex and platelet-rich fibrin
We will try transplanting patients' own fully developed teeth using a simulated open apex technique plus platelet-rich fibrin to encourage revascularization and help younger people or others who cannot get implants.
-
Premolar autotransplantation to replace upper front teeth in young patients
This project will test whether transplanting a premolar into the upper front jaw helps children aged 7–15 regain tooth function and appearance.
-
Nobel N1 dental implant with early 6-week crown placement
This test will see if adults missing a single back tooth can get a final crown on a Nobel N1 dental implant 6 weeks after implant surgery.
-
Immediate short implants to replace a single extracted tooth
This study will test whether placing short dental implants right after removing a single tooth in patients with limited bone provides solid support and healthy gum and bone healing.
-
Evaluation of biomimetic abutments for dental implants
This study tests if using special healing and prosthetic parts for dental implants can improve healing and overall results for patients getting dental restorations.
-
Examining gum changes after removing an implant crown
This study is testing how the gums change after taking off an implant crown to see how long it takes for those changes to happen, which is important for making new crowns look good.
-
Evaluating healing time effects on tooth extraction socket preservation
This study is testing if waiting 3 months or 6 months after a tooth extraction helps the area heal better before getting an implant, specifically for people with gum disease.
-
Evaluation of customized dental implants over three years
This study is testing how well personalized dental implants work for patients over three years compared to regular implants, looking at things like comfort and how well they last.
-
Evaluation of the TSX Dental Implant System for Tooth Loss
This study is testing the TSX Dental Implant System to see how well it works for people who need dental implants in their upper or lower jaw.
-
Comparing one-piece and two-piece ceramic dental implants for tooth loss
This study is testing whether one-piece or two-piece ceramic dental implants work better for adults with missing teeth and if there are any problems with each type.
-
Using PEEK for Removable Partial Dentures
This study tests if removable partial dentures made from a special material called PEEK can improve the quality of life for people with missing teeth.
-
Comparing one versus two visits for root canal treatments in infected teeth
This study is testing whether getting a root canal treatment in one visit is just as effective as getting it in two visits for people with infected teeth.
-
How losing teeth and wearing complete dentures affect taste, mouth sensations, and food preferences
We will test whether people who have lost all their teeth and wear complete dentures notice changes in taste, oral sensations, and food preferences compared with similar people who still have most of their natural teeth.
-
Using 3D-printed tooth replicas for tooth transplantation
This study tests if using 3D-printed tooth replicas can help children and young adults successfully replace missing teeth better than traditional methods.
NIH-funded research (4)

This project looks at how HIV, its treatment, and immune changes may cause jawbone and tooth loss in people living with HIV.
-
Periodontitis and HIV treatment–related bone loss in the jaw and teeth
This project studies how HIV and its treatment affect jawbone and tooth loss in people living with HIV, aiming to understand and reduce bone damage around teeth.
-
Periodontitis and HIV therapy–related bone loss in people living with HIV
A study exploring how HIV treatment–related immune changes can drive bone loss around the teeth in people with HIV, and how periodontitis may worsen this effect.
-
How HIV and its treatment affect bone and tooth health
This study is looking at how HIV and the medications used to treat it can affect bone health in the jaw, which is important for keeping your teeth healthy, and it's aimed at helping people living with HIV understand and improve their oral health.
