Donated vs. your own tooth graft for bone preservation
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a special bone graft made from donated teeth works as well as a graft made from your own teeth to preserve the bone after wisdom tooth removal. It may help you keep more bone in your jaw for future dental work.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether donated (allogenic) bone blocks work as well as your own bone to rebuild the jaw so dental implants can be placed. It's for people missing 1-4 teeth where the bone ridge is too thin.
This trial tests whether material made from extracted teeth can help bone regrow in the jaw after tooth removal, so you can get a dental implant. Researchers will compare this new approach to see if it works better for rebuilding bone in areas where teeth need to be replaced.
This trial tests a way to preserve the bone where an infected tooth is removed. It may help patients who need a tooth extraction and want to keep their jawbone healthy for future dental work.
This study tests a method to preserve the jawbone after removing a lower back tooth, before placing a dental implant. It is conducted in a student setting, meaning dental students will perform the procedure under supervision.
This trial tests whether a dentin graft (made from tooth) or a mineralized graft works better for preserving the jawbone after a tooth is removed in the upper back area. Your participation could help doctors find the best way to keep the bone strong and ready for future implants.
This trial tests if using a tooth that is removed (like a wisdom tooth) to fill deep gum pockets works as well as using a piece of your own bone. It may help rebuild the bone around a damaged tooth.
