Bone Graft Comparison for Saving Jawbone After Tooth Extraction
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two types of bone graft materials used to preserve the jawbone after a tooth is pulled, so that a dental implant can be placed later. It may help you keep enough bone in the area for a successful implant.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have a front tooth or premolar in the upper jaw that cannot be saved and needs to be pulled, and you plan to get a dental implant later.
- You do not have an active infection or abscess near the tooth.
- You do not have poor oral hygiene or uncontrolled gum disease.
- You do not smoke, abuse alcohol, or use drugs, and you are not pregnant or breastfeeding.

This study tests an injectable bone graft material placed in the socket after removing a back tooth in the lower jaw. The goal is to preserve the bone and prepare it for a future implant (artificial tooth root).
This study tests a new way to preserve the shape of your gum and bone after a tooth is pulled in the front of your mouth. It compares using your own tooth (specially treated) versus a standard bone graft material to see which works better.
This trial tests two different bone graft materials used to preserve the jawbone after a tooth extraction. The goal is to see which material works better to maintain bone for future dental implants.
This study tests a mix of two bone graft materials (one from donated human bone and one from cow bone) to see if it helps preserve the jawbone after a tooth is pulled, so there is enough bone for a dental implant later. It may be a good option if you are generally healthy and need a molar or premolar removed.
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.
This trial tests if adding a special hydrogel to a bone graft material helps preserve the jawbone better after tooth extraction. It is for adults with severe tooth infection or damage who are otherwise healthy.
