Study of gum inflammation after tooth removal
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study looks at how gum (periodontal) inflammation affects the body’s immune response during wound healing after a tooth is taken out. You might be considered because you need a molar or premolar extraction where the tooth cannot be repaired.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need to have a molar or premolar tooth removed
- The tooth cannot be repaired or saved (“non-restorable”)
- The tooth is located in the back part of the mouth (posterior side)
- You do not have a serious whole-body (systemic) condition that changes inflammation
- You are willing to be part of the study related to healing after extraction

This study looks at how well the mouth heals after a tooth is removed in older adults. It may help doctors understand how to improve recovery after tooth extractions.
This study looks at how the gum and bone heal behind the second molar after removing a lower wisdom tooth. It may help reduce problems like gum pockets or bone loss in that area.
This study looks at people who need wisdom tooth (third molar) removal and collects the leftover tissue after extraction. The goal is to use these samples to help dental research, while making sure the procedure can be done safely.
This study tests a special bone-filling material that may help the jawbone heal better after wisdom tooth removal. It compares healing on both sides of the mouth in people who need both lower wisdom teeth taken out.
This trial tests a special membrane that covers the tooth socket after extraction to help preserve the bone and gum area. It may be an option if you need a tooth removed but cannot get an implant right away.
This study looks at how the immune system (B cells) works in gum disease and may help doctors better understand the condition. You may be asked to take part if you need gum surgery and meet other health and treatment rules.
