Preserving jawbone after tooth removal using your own tooth
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a way to preserve the shape and volume of your jawbone after a tooth is pulled. Instead of using artificial materials, the dentist grinds your extracted tooth into a natural bone-graft material and places it back into the socket. The goal is to keep the bone strong and healthy for a future dental implant or bridge.

This study tests whether using natural material from your own tooth can help preserve jawbone after a tooth is removed. Keeping bone healthy after extraction may make future tooth replacement easier and more successful.
This trial tests a new type of bone graft made from donated teeth to help preserve the jawbone after multiple teeth are pulled. It aims to see if this natural material helps the bone heal better than standard treatments.
This study tests if using a special type of bone graft made from a patient's own tooth can help preserve the jawbone after a tooth is removed. It compares different healing times to see which works best for keeping the bone strong for a future dental implant.
This study compares two types of bone graft materials used to preserve the jawbone after a tooth is pulled, so that a dental implant can be placed later. It may help you keep enough bone in the area for a successful 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 study tests a mix of two bone graft materials (one from donated human bone and one from cow bone) to see if it helps preserve the jawbone after a tooth is pulled, so there is enough bone for a dental implant later. It may be a good option if you are generally healthy and need a molar or premolar removed.
