Algae bone graft for gum disease bone defects
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests a new bone graft material made from algae, used with a collagen membrane, to help repair bone damage caused by gum disease. It might be an option if you have a deep pocket in the bone around a tooth and are healthy enough for the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 20 and 65 years old.
- You have a 'hole' (called an intrabony defect) in the bone around a tooth from gum disease.
- You are generally healthy and do not have major medical problems.
- You do not smoke.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and you do not have an active infection (especially in your mouth).

This study tests a new treatment for deep gum pockets and bone loss caused by periodontitis. The treatment combines a special bone graft material with hyaluronic acid (a natural substance) to help rebuild bone and support the gums.
This trial tests a bone substitute material to help repair gum defects between the roots of back teeth (molars) that have not healed with standard deep cleaning. If you have a single area of gum bone loss between the roots, this surgery might help regenerate the bone.
This trial tests whether a graft made from your own extracted tooth works as well as a traditional bone graft, both combined with a special enamel protein, to repair bone loss from gum disease.
This trial tests two different bone-filling materials combined with a gum graft to repair deep pockets in your gums caused by gum disease. The goal is to help your gums heal and regain support around your teeth.
This study tests whether one of two treatments can improve healing of “intra-bony” gum/bone defects around teeth after deep cleaning. It may help some people with periodontal disease who have pockets deep enough to involve the bone but with certain health and dental conditions.
This study tests whether adding a special gel made from your own blood (albumin-PRF) to standard gum surgery helps your gums and bone heal better. It is for people with severe gum disease (periodontitis) who have already had a basic deep cleaning and still have deep pockets between their teeth.
