What the study is about

Scientists do research to answer important questions which might help change or improve the way we do things in the future.

The investigators know that using Enamel Matrix Derivatives results in thicker gum tissues around teeth. This study will test to see if using EMD around implants results in thicker gum tissues around implants.

Being studied: Enamel Matrix Derivative

Conditions: Dental Implantation; Missing Teeth; Periodontitis, Adult; Mucositis
