Study Summary
This trial is testing if a Straumann implant works better when placed immediately after an extraction, compared to waiting for the site to heal first.
Who is the study for?
Adults needing a single tooth extraction and implant in the front or premolar area of their upper or lower jaw, with healthy adjacent teeth and sufficient bone for stability. Participants must be in good health, able to perform oral hygiene, not pregnant, non-heavy smokers (less than 10 cigarettes/day), without severe bruxism or TMJ issues, and committed to follow-up visits.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares outcomes of placing Straumann Bone Level Tapered implants immediately after tooth extraction versus delayed placement in healed sites. It's randomized and controlled across multiple centers to assess clinical performance and x-ray results.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not explicitly listed but may include typical risks associated with dental implant surgery such as infection, swelling, pain at the implant site, bleeding, nerve damage leading to numbness or tingling sensation, and possible failure of the implant.
