Bone preservation after infected tooth removal
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a way to preserve the bone where an infected tooth is removed. It may help patients who need a tooth extraction and want to keep their jawbone healthy for future dental work.

This study tests a method to preserve the jawbone after removing a lower back tooth, before placing a dental implant. It is conducted in a student setting, meaning dental students will perform the procedure under supervision.
This trial tests whether a special bone graft made from donated teeth works as well as a graft made from your own teeth to preserve the bone after wisdom tooth removal. It may help you keep more bone in your jaw for future dental work.
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 is testing a protective membrane (Biotivity A-C) placed in a tooth socket after extraction to help preserve bone for a future dental implant. It may be an option if you need a back tooth pulled and plan to get an implant.
This study compares two ways to preserve the jawbone after pulling a lower back tooth that will later be replaced with an implant. The goal is to see which approach—preserving the bone ridge or letting it heal naturally—helps the implant stay strong.
This study tests whether a special bone graft material (carbonate apatite) helps preserve the jawbone after a tooth is removed, so you can later get a dental implant. It's for people who need a tooth pulled and are interested in getting an implant.
