Testing a healing gel for jaw bone medication-related damage
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a special gel made of polynucleotides and hyaluronic acid (molecules that help tissue repair) can improve healing after jaw surgery for early-stage medication-related osteonecrosis. The gel is applied during surgery to support the bone and gum healing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have been diagnosed with stage 1 or stage 2 medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) — a condition where the jaw bone doesn't heal properly, often after dental procedures, and is linked to certain medications.
- You are scheduled to have surgery to treat this condition.
- You have not had radiation therapy to the head or neck.
- You are not pregnant.
- You can attend follow-up visits at the clinic as required.

This study tests whether using a concentrate of your own platelets (cells that help blood clot and heal) in the tooth socket after removal improves healing and reduces the risk of a jaw bone condition called MRONJ. It may be an option if you are at higher risk for MRONJ due to certain medications.
This study compares two ways to treat a jaw bone problem caused by medications (called MRONJ) when it happens around a dental implant. One option is to keep the implant and treat the bone, the other is to remove the implant. The goal is to see which approach leads to better healing.
This study looks at how bone quality changes over time in patients with medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ), a condition where jaw bone fails to heal after certain medications. By comparing repeated CT scans, researchers hope to better understand the condition and improve care.
This trial tests whether a special dressing made from your own blood (called L-PRF) can help your jaw heal better after surgery for medication-related bone damage. It's for people who need surgery for this condition and aims to improve recovery.
This trial tests a surgical technique using a double tissue flap to close the jawbone in patients with medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). The goal is to improve healing and reduce complications.
This trial tests a combination of medicines (pentoxifylline and tocopherol, a form of vitamin E) to treat damage to the jaw bone caused by bone-strengthening drugs. If you have Stage 2 MRONJ and meet other criteria, this treatment may help heal the bone.
