Antibiotics around sinus and bone graft implants to prevent problems
Treatments studied
Part of Infections, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial studies whether taking antibiotics through the body (systemic antibiotics) after sinus-lift and bone-graft dental implant surgery can reduce post-surgery complications and improve patient comfort. It compares outcomes that matter to patients after implant placement using guided bone regeneration and a sinus floor elevation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 21 years old and generally healthy (ASA I–II)
- You do not currently smoke, or you quit at least 5 years ago (no heavy smoking; under 10 cigarettes/day if a light smoker)
- You are not allergic to amoxicillin/penicillin, NSA pain medicines (like ibuprofen), or corn-starch
- Your case involves a sinus lift and bone graft for upper back teeth (posterior maxilla) with implant placement for up to 3 implants
- You do not have sinus infection signs right now that need ongoing treatment (or uncontrolled sinusitis)
- You have not taken antibiotics in the last 3 months and do not need routine antibiotic prevention for dental work

This trial tests whether taking antibiotics before a bone graft procedure helps prevent infection better than a placebo. If you need a tooth pulled and a bone graft, you may be able to join.
This study tests if different antibiotics affect how well dental implants heal in the jaw. Participants need one or more implants in the back of the upper or lower jaw.
This study compares different types of bone graft materials used during sinus lift surgery (a procedure that builds up bone in the upper jaw to support dental implants). Researchers want to see which combination works best for long-term implant success.
This trial tests a new type of bone graft material for opening the upper-jaw sinus to make room for dental implants. It is for people with very little bone in the back of the upper jaw who need implants for missing teeth.
This study tests a new bone graft material for sinus lifts, a procedure to add bone in the upper jaw so dental implants can be placed. It may help people who are missing bone in the back of their upper jaw due to enlarged sinuses.
This trial compares two surgical methods to help place dental implants in the upper back jaw when there isn’t enough bone height. It may help you and your dentist choose the safest approach to create enough support for the implant.
