Collagen membranes for healing after wisdom tooth surgery
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether placing a collagen membrane after wisdom tooth removal helps the nearby second molar heal better. If you have impacted lower wisdom teeth on both sides, this study may compare healing with and without the membrane.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 25 years old or older.
- Your lower wisdom teeth are angled forward or sideways and sit below the level of the neighboring tooth's chewing surface.
- Both lower wisdom teeth are similar in position and angle (within 15 degrees of each other).
- The second molars (the teeth just in front of your wisdom teeth) have no cavities or fillings that might interfere with healing measurement.
- You do not have bleeding or immune disorders, allergies to local anesthesia or pig products, and you are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or a smoker.

This trial tests a regenerative gel placed in the socket after wisdom tooth removal to improve healing. It may reduce pain, swelling, and speed up recovery.
This study looks at how the gum and bone heal behind the second molar after removing a lower wisdom tooth. It may help reduce problems like gum pockets or bone loss in that area.
This study tests whether using platelet-rich fibrin (a substance made from your own blood that helps healing) put into the socket after wisdom tooth removal can reduce pain, improve healing, and shrink the deep pocket behind the next tooth. It may help protect that tooth from future gum problems.
This study tests a special bone-filling material that may help the jawbone heal better after wisdom tooth removal. It compares healing on both sides of the mouth in people who need both lower wisdom teeth taken out.
This study tests whether a gel with chlorhexidine and hyaluronic acid helps wounds heal better after wisdom tooth removal. If you're getting a partially impacted lower wisdom tooth out, this might help you heal faster and with less discomfort.
This study tests a special bone-healing material placed after wisdom tooth removal to help the bone recover better. It may lead to faster or more complete healing of the tooth socket.
