ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying two different methods for placing dental implants in the front part of the upper jaw (the maxilla). Specifically, it will compare a robotic system to a dynamic navigation system, which helps dentists place implants more accurately. The goal is to find out which method provides better accuracy, takes less time during surgery, and offers a better experience for patients.

To be eligible for this study, participants need to be at least 18 years old and in good health. They should have one or more upper front teeth that need to be removed but can’t be saved, and there should be enough healthy bone for the implant. However, people with certain health issues, a history of gum disease, or those who smoke heavily may not be able to participate. If you choose to join, you will receive a follow-up scan after surgery to check how well the implant was placed, and you’ll be monitored for a year to see how you’re doing overall. This trial is not yet recruiting participants but aims to improve dental implant procedures for better patient outcomes.
