NCT00641277 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 15

Summary

Dental implants are used in dentistry to reestablish function and appearance to areas of the mouth where natural teeth are missing. Implants can be a good choice for almost all areas of the mouth except where the space left by missing teeth is too narrow. This is usually the case when front teeth are lost of have been missing since birth.

The Maximus dental implant is the smallest implant made, just 3mm in diameter, and is especially designed to replace missing front teeth and yet be strong enough to function as a natural tooth.

This study will assess the functional success of BioHorizons Maximus one-piece endosseous dental implant.

We hypothesize that placement of the 3mm dental implant in areas of limited tooth-to-tooth spacing will be an efficacious tooth root replacement.
