Influence of Implant Crown Transmucosal Contour Design on Soft and Hard Tissue Clinical Outcomes
Not Applicable
- Conditions
- Gum Disease
- Interventions
- Procedure: Implant crown delivery
- Registration Number
- NCT06185075
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Michigan
- Brief Summary
This study will evaluate how the crown's shape under the gums will influence the gum tissue around dental implants.
- Detailed Description
This research is studying the transmucosal contour, or shape of crowns (white-colored tooth structure that sits above the gum) under the gums on dental implants. Participants will be randomly selected for the dental implant crown to be designed with either a straight or concave transmucosal contour, and followed up on for 1 year after crown delivery.
