About this study
Official title: Clinical and Radiographic Assessment of Photofunctionalized Dental Implants With or Without Melatonin in the Posterior Maxilla
The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of using photofunctionalized (UV-treated) dental implants with or without the application of melatonin hormone in the posterior maxilla (upper back jaw).
The posterior maxilla is known to have lower bone quality, which can negatively affect the primary and secondary stability of dental implants,. UV photofunctionalization is a method that modifies the titanium surface of the implant, changing it from hydrophobic (water-repelling) to superhydrophilic (water-attracting). This enhancement aims to accelerate protein adsorption and promote bone-building cells (osteoblasts). On the other hand, melatonin acts as an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agent that stimulates bone formation and reduces bone resorption.
A total of 21 dental implants will be placed in patients requiring tooth replacement in the posterior maxilla. The implants will be divided into three main approaches: one using UV-treated implants alone, and the other combining UV-treated implants with melatonin. and one using conventional implant Patients will be followed up clinically and radiographically to assess implant stability, bone healing, and overall implant success over time.
Read the detailed description
This interventional study is designed to clinically and radiographically evaluate the potential synergistic effects of ultraviolet (UV) photofunctionalized dental implants combined with melatonin hormone in the posterior maxilla, bone density (D4 bone quality) and challenging primary implant stability.
Biological aging of titanium is an unavoidable phenomenon occurring within weeks of manufacturing, where hydrocarbon contamination covers the protective titanium dioxide layer, increasing surface hydrophobicity and reducing optimal osteoblast adhesion. To counteract this, UV photofunctionalization (UV irradiation) will be utilized immediately prior to implant insertion to restore superhydrophilic properties, reduce hydrocarbon content, and enhance early protein adsorption and osteoblastic differentiation.
Additionally, melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) will be investigated as an alternative graft or bioactive material. Melatonin exhibits potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant capabilities, destroys reactive oxygen species, and stimulates human osteoblasts to synthesize type I collagen fibers. It also down-regulates RANKL-mediated osteoclast activation, thereby reducing bone resorption during the critical early healing phases.
Patients will be selected from the Outpatient Clinic of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University, following ethical committee approval and obtaining informed written consents. A total of 21 implants will be placed in the posterior maxilla. The clinical and radiographic evaluation will monitor parameters such as primary and secondary implant stability, marginal bone level changes, and peri-implant tissue health to compare the outcomes of photofunctionalized implants alone against those combined with melatonin.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
UV-Photofunctionalized Dental ImplantDevice
Commercial titanium dental implants subjected to ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation immediately prior to surgical placement to convert the surface property from hydrophobic to superhydrophilic.
Conventional Dental ImplantDevice
Standard commercial titanium dental implants placed using traditional surgical protocols without any UV surface photofunctionalization or melatonin application.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Experimental: UV-Implant + Melatonin | Experimental | Patients in this group will receive ultraviolet (UV) photofunctionalized dental implants combined with the topical application of melatonin hormone at the implant site in the posterior maxilla to evaluate early bone formation. Receives: Device: UV-Photofunctionalized Dental Implant |
| Active Comparator: UV-Implant Alone | Active comparator | Patients in this group will receive ultraviolet (UV) photofunctionalized dental implants alone without the application of melatonin hormone in the posterior maxilla to serve as the active control group.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Implant Stability (ISQ)
Implant stability will be measured using Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA) to obtain the Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) value. Higher ISQ values indicate greater primary and secondary implant stability.
Measured: At the time of implant placement (baseline), 2, 4, weeks, 3 and 9 months
Secondary outcomes (1)
Marginal Bone Level Changes
Radiographic evaluation using standardized digital periapical radiographs to measure peri-implant marginal bone loss or gain in millimeters.
Measured: At the time of implant placement (baseline), 3 months, and 9 months post-operatively.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing UV-Photofunctionalized Dental Implant and Conventional Dental Implant in people with Jaw, Edentulous, Partially and Bone Resorption, run by Mansoura University at 1 site in Egypt.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Ali K Ali, BDS (00201553005571, ak3605773@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Implant Stability (ISQ) (time frame: At the time of implant placement (baseline), 2, 4, weeks, 3 and 9 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07853976, which also lists 10 linked publications.
