ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying two different methods of placing dental implants in patients who have missing teeth in their lower jaw. The researchers want to see which method is more accurate: one that uses a special surgical guide or a more traditional free-hand approach. They will compare the planned dental implant position before surgery with the actual position after the surgery to determine which method works best.

To participate in this study, you need to be between 18 and 75 years old and be healthy enough for dental implants. You should have some teeth missing but not have serious health issues like uncontrolled diabetes or recent dental extractions. If you join the trial, you can expect to receive either of the two surgical methods and be part of a process that might help improve dental implant procedures in the future. The study is currently looking for participants, so if you think you might qualify, it could be a great opportunity to contribute to dental care advancements!
