Preserving the tooth socket with a healing membrane
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a new membrane to help preserve the empty tooth socket after a tooth is removed, so that a future implant can be placed more easily. It may be a good option if your tooth cannot be replaced with an implant immediately.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- Your tooth can't be replaced with an implant right away because of thin gums, missing bone, or other issues.
- You are generally healthy and have good oral hygiene.
- You are willing to come for regular check-ups and sign a consent form.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You have not taken certain bone-related medications (like bisphosphonates) in the last 5 years.

This trial tests two techniques to preserve the socket (the hole left after a tooth is pulled) when there is a small defect in the front wall of the socket. It aims to see which method better maintains bone and gum for future dental implants.
This study tests whether a special bone graft material (carbonate apatite) helps preserve the jawbone after a tooth is removed, so you can later get a dental implant. It's for people who need a tooth pulled and are interested in getting an implant.
This trial tests two materials, Biodentin and a xenograft, to see which one better preserves the bone socket after a single-rooted tooth is pulled. It may help you if you need a tooth extracted and plan to get a dental implant later.
This trial looks at different ways to protect the gum and bone after a tooth is extracted. It may help your clinician learn which healing approach works best for preserving the tooth socket.
This trial tests a gel made of hyaluronic acid and polynucleotides to help preserve the bone and gum after a tooth is pulled. It may help you keep a healthy foundation for a future dental implant.
