Dental implant placement with or without bone graft in the upper jaw
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests two ways to place dental implants in the upper back jaw where there is not enough bone. It compares using a bone graft material versus not using one, to see which approach works better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have missing teeth in the upper back jaw with very little bone left.
- The remaining bone height in that area is between 3 and 5 mm.
- You have at least 2 mm of firm, attached gum tissue around the area.
- You have good oral hygiene habits.
- You are willing to come back for all follow-up visits.

This trial tests a way to place dental implants in the upper jaw where bone is thin (4-6 mm height) without needing a bone graft. It uses special self-tapping implants to lift the sinus floor gently through the implant site.
This trial tests a technique to rebuild bone in the upper jaw at the back (premolar and molar areas) during dental implant placement. It may be a good option if you have low bone height but enough bone width for the procedure.
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 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 compares two ways of placing dental implants in the back of the upper jaw when the bone is too thin for standard implants. It may help people who need an implant but have lost bone height.
This study compares two ways to build up bone in the upper jaw for dental implants. You may qualify if you need a sinus lift and have healthy gums and overall health.
