Laser vs. saline for faster healing after baby tooth removal
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial compares a low-level laser treatment to a saline solution to see which helps children heal better after having a severely decayed baby molar pulled. If your child is 4 to 6 years old, healthy, and needs a baby tooth removed, they may be able to join.

This study tests whether a special laser or a gel (hyaluronic acid) can help children heal better and faster after having a badly decayed first permanent molar tooth taken out.
This trial tests whether a special laser treatment can help your gums heal better after a tooth is removed and the socket is prepared for a future dental implant. If you're having a tooth pulled and bone preservation, this laser might speed up healing and reduce pain.
This study tests whether using a special laser after a lower-jaw tooth extraction can help the socket heal faster and grow new bone. It may benefit people who plan to get a dental implant later.
This study tests whether a low-level laser (a gentle light treatment) can help your gums and jawbone heal better after your lower wisdom teeth are removed. It may reduce pain and speed up recovery.
This study compares two tooth-cleaning liquids (calcium hypochlorite vs. saline) used during a pulpectomy (nerve removal in baby molars). It aims to see which one works better for treating deep cavities that have caused nerve damage in lower baby molars.
This study tests if using a laser is better than the usual method for treating painful, inflamed teeth that still have a live nerve. The goal is to save the tooth and reduce pain without removing the nerve entirely.
