Influence of Alveolar Bone Drilling and Anatomical Position on Integration
Lithuania124 participantsStarted 2026-07
Plain-language summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if alveolar bone drilling and anatomical position of an immediately placed dental implant has influence on the primary stability, osseointegration and function. It aims to answer these questions:
* Does absence of alveolar drilling before implant placement give the same result as traditional osteotomy with apical drilling?
* Is palatinal root position of implant as succesful as central position?
Researchers will compare crestal bone levels and primary stability of the implant after insertion in the groups. Subjects will be assigned to groups, acoording to clinical situation. Study groups:
1. Dental implants will be placed in the extraction socket with an apical osteotomy.
2. Dental implants will be placed in the extraction socket without performing an osteotomy.
3. Dental implants will be placed in the centre of the extracted maxillary molar socket.
4. Dental implants will be placed into the palatal root socket of the extracted maxillary molar.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
