Comparing two ways to preserve bone after tooth extraction
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two ways of preserving the jawbone after a tooth is pulled, to keep the area strong for a future dental implant. If you have a tooth that needs extraction with a small bone defect on the cheek side, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need to have a tooth (or two-rooted tooth) that is being pulled.
- You are generally healthy and able to have dental surgery.
- The tooth has a small bone defect on the cheek side, not longer than one-third of the root.
- You are 21 years or older.
- You are not a smoker, or you smoke fewer than 10 cigarettes a day.
- You have good oral hygiene (plaque and bleeding scores under 15%) and can keep up with follow-up visits.

This study compares two methods to preserve the jawbone after a tooth is removed, which may help prepare for a dental implant later. It uses either a sticky bone graft or a xenograft with hyaluronic acid.
This study compares two methods used to preserve the jawbone after a molar tooth is removed, to help keep the area ready for future dental work like implants. It uses either a specially treated piece of your tooth or a blood-based material to help the bone heal better.
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 trial tests two materials, Biodentin and a xenograft, to see which one better preserves the bone socket after a single-rooted tooth is pulled. It may help you if you need a tooth extracted and plan to get a dental implant later.
This study compares different ways to preserve the bone where a tooth is removed, which may help keep the area ready for future implants or other dental work. If you're having a tooth pulled due to gum disease, this trial could help maintain your jawbone and support better healing.
This study compares two ways of managing the jawbone after a tooth is removed, to see if one helps preserve more bone for a future dental implant. It may help people who need a tooth replaced with an implant.
