Comparing two gum surgery methods for jaw bone cysts
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways to remove benign jaw bone growths or cysts and protect the bone during surgery, using computer guidance. It may help patients with larger jaw lesions recover faster and keep their teeth and jaw strong.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 40 years old.
- You must have a hard (bony) growth or cyst in the lower jaw that is at least 1 centimeter across.
- The outer bone layer over the growth should be at least 1 millimeter thick.
- You must be generally healthy, without uncontrolled diabetes or conditions that slow bone healing.
- You must not be currently taking medications that weaken the immune system (like corticosteroids), or have had chemotherapy or radiation therapy.

This trial tests a new way to remove jaw cysts using a tiny camera and special guides, which may help protect the nerve in your jaw. It is for people with a tooth-related cyst at least 2 cm wide that is pushing on that nerve.
This study compares two types of guided surgery methods for placing dental implants in the back of the jaw (where there are missing teeth). It aims to find which technique works better for patients who need implants in that area.
This study tests custom-made implants to help treat jaw cysts that are near important structures. It may be an option for people whose cysts are in tricky locations where standard surgery might be risky.
This study compares two ways to treat deep gum pockets and bone loss around teeth. One method is non-surgical and minimally invasive, and the other is a surgical approach that lifts a small flap of gum. The goal is to see which works better for repairing bone and reducing pocket depth.
This trial compares two ways of placing a dental implant along with a bone-grafting procedure to rebuild bone around the implant. It aims to see which method gives better results for people who need a single implant and have a small bone defect on the cheek side.
This study tests a new way to plan jaw surgery using 3D computer models, custom guides, and plates. It may help people with a certain type of jaw misalignment get more precise results from their surgery.
