ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying two different methods for preparing the jawbone before placing dental implants in the back of the lower jaw (mandible). Researchers want to see if a new technique called "biological drilling" leads to better stability of the implants compared to the traditional drilling method. This is important because stable implants can help ensure that dental work is successful and lasts longer.

To participate in this study, individuals must be healthy adults aged 21 to 60 who need a dental implant in the back of their lower jaw and have good oral health. Those who smoke heavily, are pregnant, or have certain health issues will not be eligible. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the new drilling method or the conventional method and will be monitored for implant stability over three months. This study is currently not recruiting participants, but it aims to provide valuable insights into improving dental implant procedures.
