Bone graft for preserving jawbone after tooth removal
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 20 and 80 years old.
- You need a tooth removed (a front tooth, canine, or premolar) because of a cavity, gum disease, a crack, or it can't be fixed.
- The socket where the tooth is removed must be free of infection, and any gap in the bone should be less than 5 mm.
- You plan to get a dental implant after the tooth comes out.
- You are not a heavy smoker (10+ cigarettes a day) and haven't quit smoking in the last 10 years.
- You are not on medications that affect bone healing (like bisphosphonates) and do not have osteoporosis or active cancer treatment.

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 a new injectable bone graft material placed in the socket after a tooth is removed. The goal is to see if it helps preserve the jawbone for a future dental implant.
This study tests if a special gel combined with bone graft material helps preserve the jawbone after a tooth is removed, preparing the area for a dental implant. It aims to compare this treatment with standard care to see if it leads to better bone healing.
This study tests if using a special type of bone graft made from a patient's own tooth can help preserve the jawbone after a tooth is removed. It compares different healing times to see which works best for keeping the bone strong for a future dental implant.
This study compares two ways to preserve the jawbone after a tooth is pulled. It uses a special sticky bone graft and a natural material called chitosan to help the bone heal better, which may help maintain a good shape for future dental implants.
This study compares different ways to preserve the bone where a tooth is removed, which may help keep the area ready for future implants or other dental work. If you're having a tooth pulled due to gum disease, this trial could help maintain your jawbone and support better healing.
