Magnesium pins for dental bone graft membrane
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests new magnesium pins to hold a membrane in place during a dental bone graft procedure. It may help people who don't have enough bone in their upper jaw for dental implants.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 21 years old
- You are missing one or more upper premolars or molars on either or both sides
- You have too little bone height in your upper jaw to place implants directly
- You need a two-step surgery: first a sinus floor elevation, then implants later
- You are healthy and willing to sign a consent form
- You do not smoke more than 9 cigarettes a day

This trial tests a new type of plate and screw made from a special magnesium material that slowly dissolves in the body. It is used to fix jawbones during surgery, and because the material dissolves, you may not need a second surgery to remove the hardware.
This study tests a new bone graft material for sinus lifts, a procedure to add bone in the upper jaw so dental implants can be placed. It may help people who are missing bone in the back of their upper jaw due to enlarged sinuses.
This study compares two methods to rebuild bone around immediate tooth implants (implants placed right after tooth extraction). The goal is to see which material—a magnesium membrane or bone graft—works better to support the implant and maintain bone structure.
This trial compares two types of membranes (PEEK vs PTFE) used in a bone-grafting procedure to rebuild the upper jawbone where teeth are missing. It may be an option for you if you need extra bone before getting dental implants.
This trial compares two methods for placing dental implants right after removing a failing tooth in the upper front area. It tests whether a magnesium shield helps preserve the bone and gum better than the usual grafting technique.
This trial tests a new type of bone graft material for opening the upper-jaw sinus to make room for dental implants. It is for people with very little bone in the back of the upper jaw who need implants for missing teeth.
