Vallomix Socket Preservation Study
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests a new material called Vallomix placed in the tooth socket after extraction to help preserve bone for a future dental implant. It may be an option if you need a back tooth removed and plan to get an implant later.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You need one back tooth (premolar or molar, not a wisdom tooth) pulled and replaced with a dental implant.
- The pulled tooth must have a nearby natural tooth still in place.
- You are not a heavy smoker (more than 10 cigarettes/day) and do not use e-cigarettes or smokeless tobacco.
- Your health conditions (like diabetes) are well controlled, and you're not on medications that affect bone healing.

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 two different bone graft materials used to preserve the jawbone after a tooth extraction. The goal is to see which material works better to maintain bone for future dental implants.
This study tests two ways of making a temporary tooth after a single tooth extraction. It compares a removable device (Essix) with a tooth-shaped bridge attached to the neighboring teeth (Ovate Pontic) to see which works better for healing.
This study is testing a protective membrane (Biotivity A-C) placed in a tooth socket after extraction to help preserve bone for a future dental implant. It may be an option if you need a back tooth pulled and plan to get an implant.
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 compares two methods for preserving bone after a tooth is pulled in the upper front (smile) area. It tests whether a special plug or a membrane does a better job keeping the bone ready for a future implant.
