Collagen sponge vs collagen membrane after tooth removal
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two types of collagen dental materials placed after a back tooth (molar) is removed. The goal is to see which one better helps preserve the jawbone so you can later get a dental implant.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re 18 years or older
- You need a molar removed because of gum (periodontal) disease, and you plan a later implant
- There’s no urgent infection right now (like a pus pocket/abscess or fluid drainage)
- Your tooth socket has a specific type of bone defect (enough remaining bone height, with part of the defect meeting the study measurements)
- There is a tooth next to the extraction site
- You don’t smoke

Similar studies
Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how different healing times affect the success of preserving the bone where a molar is removed due to gum disease. It aims to find the best wait time before placing a dental implant.
This study tests whether a collagen membrane (a thin, natural material) placed after a tooth extraction helps preserve the jaw bone. Keeping bone healthy can make future tooth replacement easier and more successful.
This study compares two types of collagen membranes used to help rebuild bone around a dental implant. If you need a single implant in the front of your mouth and a bone graft at the same time, this trial may help determine which membrane works best.
This trial tests a new collagen-based graft material used to preserve the bone socket right after a tooth is removed. The goal is to keep the bone healthy so that a dental implant can be placed later.
This trial tests how well a collagen membrane helps heal the gum and jawbone after an implant is placed. If you need a dental implant and have a small bone gap or thin bone, this study may be a good option.
This trial tests whether a special collagen material placed around a new dental implant can help prevent bone loss in the upper front gum area. It is for people needing a single implant in a specific tooth zone and may help keep the bone strong for a better cosmetic result.
