Evaluating different attachments for implant-supported dentures in the lower jaw

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial aims to assess the effectiveness of two types of attachments, Novaloc and Equator, on implant-retained mandibular overdentures for patients with edentulism. A total of 10 patients will receive upper complete dentures and lower overdentures supported by two dental implants. After a three-month healing period, patients will be divided into two groups to evaluate the performance of each attachment type. The study will be conducted at the Faculty of Dental Medicine for Girls at Al-Azhar University.
