Comparing implant stability in post-extraction sockets
Effect of Time and Local Factors on Hydrophilic Tissue Level Implants in Post-extraction Sites: a RCT
NA · University of Rome Tor Vergata · NCT06711744
This study is testing how two different types of dental implants affect healing and stability in patients who have just had a tooth removed.

What this trial studies
This study evaluates the differences in implant stability quotient (ISQ) between two different types of dental implants placed in post-extraction sockets. Patients aged 18 and older with failing teeth will have their implants monitored monthly for ISQ from the moment of insertion up to 12 months. The goal is to determine how the macro design of the implants affects bone healing and stability. The study focuses on patients with intact socket walls following atraumatic tooth extractions.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults over 18 with failing teeth who have intact extraction sockets and no significant periodontal issues.
Not a fit: Patients with systemic diseases like diabetes or osteoporosis, or those who smoke heavily, may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved dental implant outcomes and better bone healing for patients receiving implants.
How similar studies have performed: While there have been studies on implant stability, this specific comparison of macro design in post-extraction sockets is relatively novel.
