Age and healing after tooth extraction with PRF
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how age affects healing after a tooth is removed and replaced with a bone graft using Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF), a natural substance from your own blood that helps healing. It may help you if you need a molar removed and plan to get an implant later.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 20 and 80 years old
- You need a molar tooth removed due to decay, gum disease, fracture, or damage
- The tooth socket is not infected and has enough bone on the cheek side (at least 1.5 mm thick)
- You are interested in getting a dental implant after the extraction

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 study compares two methods for preserving the jawbone after having a tooth pulled: using the patient's own blood cells (PRF) versus a standard bone graft with a membrane. The goal is to see which method works better for maintaining bone shape and density, which can help with future dental implants or other restorations.
This study tests whether placing a special clot made from your own blood (called Platelet Rich Fibrin) into the socket after a tooth extraction helps the bone heal better for a future dental implant.
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 tests if a gel made from your own blood can help your gums heal faster after a back tooth is removed. It is for patients getting dental care at the University of Nebraska Medical Center.
This trial tests whether stem cell exosomes (tiny healing particles from stem cells) work better than platelet-rich fibrin (a blood-derived clot) to help a tooth socket heal after extraction. It may help if you need a single front or premolar tooth removed and are generally healthy.
