Bone Growth After Sinus Lift for Missing Upper Teeth
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests a surgery to build up bone in the upper jaw where teeth are missing. It may help people who need more bone to get dental implants later.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are missing one or more upper teeth and the bone below your sinus is less than 5 mm high.
- You are generally healthy and not taking medications that slow healing, like steroids or chemotherapy.
- You have enough space between your upper and lower teeth for a dental implant.
- You have good oral hygiene and are willing to come for checkups over 6 months.
- You do not smoke, are not pregnant, and do not have chronic sinus problems or habits like heavy drinking or teeth grinding.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a new type of bone graft material for opening the upper-jaw sinus to make room for dental implants. It is for people with very little bone in the back of the upper jaw who need implants for missing teeth.
This trial tests a new combination of materials (erythropoietin, albumin, and platelet-rich fibrin) to help rebuild bone in the upper jaw during a sinus lift procedure. If you need a dental implant but have limited bone height, this approach may allow the implant to be placed at the same time as the lift.
This trial tests a new method to help people who have lost bone in the upper jaw get dental implants. If your jawbone is too thin, they will use a small titanium mesh to support the sinus lining and make room for an implant.
This trial tests whether adding a special tissue care product (Theravex) to a bone graft improves healing when building up bone in your upper jaw for dental implants. The goal is to see if this combination helps the graft take better and leads to stronger bone.
This trial tests a bone graft made of your own bone mixed with cow bone (Deproteinized Bovine Bone) to rebuild the upper jaw in the sinus area. It compares this mixed bone graft to using only cow bone for a sinus lift, helping you get implants when there is not enough bone height.
This study tests a procedure called a lateral sinus lift to build up bone in the upper jaw before placing dental implants. It is for people who are missing multiple teeth in the back of the upper jaw and have minimal remaining bone height.
