Gel to help bone heal after tooth extraction
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether a gel made with polynucleotides and hyaluronic acid (natural substances that help healing) can improve bone preservation after a tooth is pulled, before getting a dental implant. It is for people who need a single non-molar tooth extracted and plan to get an implant.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult (over 18).
- You need one non-molar tooth pulled (not a back tooth, not a lower incisor).
- Your health status is ASA I or II (healthy or mild disease).
- The socket must be intact or have only one missing wall (less than half the socket).
- You plan to get a dental implant and a crown to replace the tooth.
- No active infection around the tooth, no pregnancy, no certain bone medications, and you smoke no more than 10 cigarettes a day.

This study tests a new combination of materials (a special gel and a bone graft) used after tooth extraction to help preserve the bone in your jaw for a future dental implant. It aims to see if this approach keeps the bone strong and healthy compared to standard treatment.
This study tests a bone graft material (OsteoGen®) placed in the tooth socket after extraction to help the bone heal and get ready for a dental implant. It may be right for you if you need a single tooth pulled and plan to get an implant.
This study tests if a gel made from cross-linked hyaluronic acid (a natural substance found in the body) can help preserve the jawbone where a tooth is removed, before a dental implant is placed later. It compares this gel to a standard bone graft material.
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.
This early-stage trial tests a bone-filling material called Neobone® placed in the socket after tooth extraction to help maintain jawbone volume. This is important because losing bone after tooth removal can make future implants or dentures difficult to fit.
This trial tests if placing hyaluronic acid (a natural substance) into the empty tooth socket helps new bone grow better after extraction. It may benefit people in good health who need a tooth removed and have healthy gums.
