Bone graft and blood concentrate for tooth infection healing
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether using a bone graft (allograft) together with your own blood concentrate (iPRF) and a collagen membrane helps heal the bone and gum around a tooth with a long-standing infection. It might be a good option if you have a tooth that keeps getting infected despite a root canal and has a deep pocket on the cheek side.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older and in good general health (no serious medical conditions that would make surgery risky).
- You have a tooth with a long-standing infection that keeps coming back even after a root canal, and a deep gum pocket (more than 6 mm) on the cheek side of that tooth.
- X-rays show that the bone on the cheek side of the tooth is missing (a 'hole' in the bone).
- The tooth does not have a crack, does not have gum disease throughout the mouth, and has a good filling or crown that seals it completely.
- You are not pregnant and do not smoke.

This study tests two types of bone graft material (from your own body or from a donor) with a special membrane to help heal a severe tooth infection that has damaged the bone and gum. The goal is to see which works better at rebuilding the area and promoting healing.
This study tests a gum surgery technique (guided tissue regeneration) to help heal teeth that have both gum disease and a failed root canal. It looks at how well the tooth heals and how it affects your daily life.
This study tests whether adding a concentrated blood clot (L-PRF) to standard root-end surgery helps tooth-related infections heal faster and better. You may be a good fit if you have a persistent infection at the tip of a tooth root and need this type of surgery.
This trial tests whether biological agents can help heal deep gum bone defects that remain after standard non-surgical cleaning. It may be an option for people who still have deep pockets around their teeth and need a minimally invasive surgical procedure.
This study tests whether using platelet-rich fibrin (a concentrate from your own blood) with a bone graft helps heal gum disease around a lower back tooth. It may improve the support for the tooth and reduce the need for more invasive treatment.
This trial looks at a better way to place dental implants by using your own bone chips and a special blood concentrate to help the bone heal and grow around the implant. It may be an option if you need a tooth replaced but have good overall health and healthy gums.
