Consider joining the dentists who are creating the first National dental implant restoration registry funded by NIDCR. The Implant Registry study is a 3-year prospective cohort study of dental implant outcomes, beginning at prosthesis placement. The study will enroll 2,000 restored implants nationwide. In this study, providers will enroll patients receiving their prosthesis over an implant and follow them for three years. The study aims to investigate the parameters associated with the success of implant therapy, as well as the rate of prosthetic and biologic implant complications.

The patient will be asked to complete a web-based survey in your dental office, collecting data on their health history and their oral health and quality of life.

WHAT DENTISTS ARE SAYING ABOUT THIS STUDY 
Dentists participating in the study are having a great experience: Dr. Jackson, a network member from the Southwest Node, is participating in the study. “I wanted to join the study initially because I feel like implants are a vital part of the future of dentistry”, said Dr. Jackson. “I hope that by participating in this study I can help to improve patient care by compiling data that will lead to understanding even more about implants, their complications and their successes.”
Dr. Nico Geurs talked about peri-implant disorders and the dental implant registry study Dr. Nico Geurs shared with us the clinical features of peri-implant conditions, and we also learned about the opportunity to participate in the Implant Registry Study.
If you are interested in dental implants and place prosthesis on dental implants, you may be eligible to participate. Email us and a node coordinator will contact you for the next steps.

The Dental Implant Registry study is funded by the National Institutes of Health / NIDCR U19-DE-28717, U01-DE-28757 and 4-UH3-DE-030090-02.
I would love the opportunity to participate in the study. I am a patient in Birmingham, AL. I am scheduled to be released soon to receive a crown. However, I have had some interesting complications during the month of April that do not show up on an X-ray or CT scan. Yet, the pain is unbearable. My oral surgeon seems less than concerned. He doesn’t see any signs of an infection and doesn’t know what it could be. He sent me home with an antibiotic and a steroid. I had to call his after hours number the next day. He just didn’t know what he could do until Monday. Imagine that! Just hurt all weekend and we will look at it on Monday. That’s compassionate! I bet he would want better care for himself or his family.
Yes, I would like to participate.
Dear Amy, We are so sorry that you are going through this. The dental implant registry study is enrolling now the dentists who place crowns and dentures after the implants. Please let your dentist know about your interest in the study, and share our website. Your dentist can contact us to enroll. We hope you feel better soon!
This initiative offers a valuable opportunity for dentists to contribute to advancing dental implant therapy through the National Dental Implant Restoration Registry study. By participating, dentists can help gather crucial data on implant success rates and complications, benefiting both the profession and patient outcomes. The compensation for both providers and patients adds an incentive, making it a worthwhile endeavor for those involved in implant therapy. It’s an exciting step towards enhancing our understanding of dental implants!
