Double-layer closure for mouth-to-sinus hole
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way to close a hole between the mouth and sinus using two layers of tissue from inside the cheek and roof of the mouth. It may help people who have this problem for the first time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a hole or opening between your mouth and your sinus cavity (called an oroantral fistula).
- You have not had surgery before to close the same hole.

This trial tests a surgical method using a special gum flap to fix a chronic hole between the mouth and sinus in the back of the upper jaw. It may help people who have this problem after a tooth extraction or other dental procedure.
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 surgical technique (Furlow palatoplasty with a cheek muscle flap) to see if it improves speech development in young children who had a complete cleft lip and palate repaired previously. It may help children between 3 and 5 years old with non-syndromic conditions.
This trial is testing a new way to close a hole in the nasal septum (the wall inside your nose) during surgery. It may be a better option for people who need this repair.
This trial tests a surgical technique that uses a flap of muscle and bone to repair small-to-medium defects in the floor of your mouth (the tissue under your tongue). The goal is to restore function and appearance after surgery or injury.
This trial tests using sterilized donor bone to repair a hole that opens into your sinus when a severely damaged upper back tooth is removed. The goal is to rebuild the bone so a dental implant can be placed safely later.
