RECRUITING

Efficacy of a Dental Implant System for Immediate Restoration

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The primary objective of this study is to observe the performance of an implant system with a new surface (EK III NH dental implants) over a period of two years. The implants will be placed in the upper and lower jaws of patients with missing teeth and immediately given a temporary restoration. The investigators will document the performance of the implants through regular dental check-ups and X-rays.
