Collagen Material to Help Gum Heal After Bone Graft for Implants
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests a special collagen material used during bone graft surgery to help the gum close over the graft. It might help people who need extra bone before getting a dental implant.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are missing one or more teeth and plan to get a dental implant
- Your dentist has said you need a bone graft (guided bone regeneration) to build up enough bone for the implant
- You are generally healthy and have no medical reasons that would prevent bone grafting or implant surgery
- You do not have chronic sinus problems
- You are a non-smoker
- You will not need to wear a removable temporary (like a flipper or partial denture) while the site heals

This trial tests how well a collagen membrane helps heal the gum and jawbone after an implant is placed. If you need a dental implant and have a small bone gap or thin bone, this study may be a good option.
This study tests two ways to build up gum tissue where a tooth is missing before placing an implant or bridge. It compares using a small piece of your own gum (connective tissue graft) versus a man-made collagen material to see which gives better volume and shape.
This study compares two ways to add gum tissue around a dental implant to improve its appearance and health. One method uses a small piece of your own gum tissue, and the other uses a special collagen material.
This trial tests whether a special collagen material placed around a new dental implant can help prevent bone loss in the upper front gum area. It is for people needing a single implant in a specific tooth zone and may help keep the bone strong for a better cosmetic result.
This trial compares two ways to thicken the gum tissue around a new dental implant in the lower back jaw. One method uses a small piece of your own gum tissue, the other uses a collagen material.
This study tests a special type of donated tissue (called acellular dermal matrix) to help rebuild bone and gum in areas where teeth are missing. Researchers want to see how well this tissue helps prepare your jaw for future dental implants.
