Tooth Graft vs Bone Graft for Socket Preservation
Treatments studied
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to preserve the shape of your gum and bone after a tooth is pulled in the front of your mouth. It compares using your own tooth (specially treated) versus a standard bone graft material to see which works better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a tooth that can't be saved and needs removal, and it's in the front of your mouth (the 'esthetic zone').
- You are a healthy adult over 18 with good oral hygiene (minimal bleeding or plaque).
- You must be willing to come back for check-ups over 6 months.
- You do not smoke heavily or have health problems like diabetes that affect healing.

This trial tests two ways to preserve the bone and gum after a tooth is pulled. It compares using your own tooth material (dentin) versus a donor’s tooth material to help the socket heal better.
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 trial tests two different treatments to preserve the bone and gum after a tooth is removed. It compares using a dentin graft with I-PRF (a special blood concentrate) to the same treatment with added vitamin C. The goal is to see which helps the healing better before a 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 two techniques to preserve the socket (the hole left after a tooth is pulled) when there is a small defect in the front wall of the socket. It aims to see which method better maintains bone and gum for future dental implants.
This study tests an injectable bone graft material placed in the socket after removing a back tooth in the lower jaw. The goal is to preserve the bone and prepare it for a future implant (artificial tooth root).
