Comparing two bone graft methods for dental implants
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a new bone grafting material (A-Oss) combined with a special membrane works as well as A-Oss with your own bone for rebuilding jawbone before placing a dental implant. It may help people who need more jawbone width to support a single implant in the upper or lower jaw.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need a dental implant and a staged bone graft to widen your jawbone in one area (front or back jaws).
- Your jawbone ridge at the implant site is 4 mm or less in thickness.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are a non-smoker or a moderate smoker (up to 10 cigarettes per day).
- You are able and willing to attend follow-ups for 5 years.
- You do not have uncontrolled diabetes, untreated gum disease, or other health issues that could prevent surgery.

This trial compares two ways of placing a dental implant and bone graft to see which heals better. It may be an option if you need a single implant and have a small bone defect around the front of the implant.
This trial tests two ways to rebuild the jawbone so there's enough space for a tooth implant. One method uses a mix of man-made bone and donated bone, the other uses man-made bone and your own bone chips. It might help you if you need more bone for an implant in your upper jaw.
This study compares two bone-building products used to repair a missing “bone wall” in the jaw so dental implants can be placed. You may be able to help find which material works better for guided bone regeneration and implant readiness.
This trial tests two surgical methods to rebuild a narrow upper jaw so it can support dental implants. It compares using a solid block of your own bone versus a thin shell of bone to widen the ridge.
This trial compares two types of bone graft materials used when a front tooth is removed and replaced with a dental implant. It aims to see which works better for healing and long-term success.
This trial tests two ways to rebuild bone in the back lower jaw using special barriers (custom 3D zirconia or titanium mesh) to support a dental implant. It may help if you have severe bone loss and want an implant.
