Tooth transplant with platelet-rich fibrin for young patients
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a tooth transplant method that uses a healthy tooth from elsewhere in your mouth to replace a missing tooth. A special protein-rich material (platelet-rich fibrin) is placed around the new tooth to help it heal and grow roots. It's designed for children, teens, and young adults who cannot get dental implants.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a missing tooth that needs to be replaced (e.g., from injury, bad decay, or a missing tooth from birth).
- You have a healthy spare tooth that can be moved (like a wisdom tooth or a tooth removed for braces).

- You do not have an active infection or untreated gum disease in the area where the tooth will go.
- You smoke less than 15 cigarettes a day (or don't smoke at all).

This trial tests whether moving a back tooth (premolar) to replace a lost or damaged front tooth works well in young people aged 7–15. It aims to help avoid bridges or implants by using the patient's own tooth.
This trial looks at a way to move a patient’s own tooth (or a prepared tooth) to replace a missing or damaged one, using a 3D plan to guide the procedure. It may help restore chewing ability and appearance by using a tooth-shaped replacement tailored for the patient.
This study tests whether a special growth factor treatment (CGF) helps when moving a healthy tooth from one part of your mouth to another. The goal is to see if it helps the transplanted tooth heal better and last longer.
This trial tests whether material made from extracted teeth can help bone regrow in the jaw after tooth removal, so you can get a dental implant. Researchers will compare this new approach to see if it works better for rebuilding bone in areas where teeth need to be replaced.
This study tests if a wisdom tooth that hasn't fully formed can be moved to replace a missing tooth. It might help you avoid a dental implant or bridge.
This trial tests whether using a special protein-rich blood product (ALB-PRF) with two different types of putty-like bone grafts helps improve the success of dental implants placed right after a tooth is removed in the front upper jaw. It may help people who need a tooth replaced in the 'smile zone' and have good oral health.
