This trial tests whether a special laser treatment can help your gums heal better after a tooth is removed and the socket is prepared for a future dental implant. If you're having a tooth pulled and bone preservation, this laser might speed up healing and reduce pain.
This study tests whether a low-level laser (a gentle light treatment) can help your gums and jawbone heal better after your lower wisdom teeth are removed. It may reduce pain and speed up recovery.
This trial compares a low-level laser treatment to a saline solution to see which helps children heal better after having a severely decayed baby molar pulled. If your child is 4 to 6 years old, healthy, and needs a baby tooth removed, they may be able to join.
This study tests whether using a special laser after a lower-jaw tooth extraction can help the socket heal faster and grow new bone. It may benefit people who plan to get a dental implant later.
This study tests whether a gel made with polynucleotides and hyaluronic acid (natural substances that help healing) can improve bone preservation after a tooth is pulled, before getting a dental implant. It is for people who need a single non-molar tooth extracted and plan to get an implant.
This trial tests if placing hyaluronic acid (a natural substance) into the empty tooth socket helps new bone grow better after extraction. It may benefit people in good health who need a tooth removed and have healthy gums.
