Bone graft with hormone for sinus lift before dental implants
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests if adding parathyroid hormone to a bone graft improves bone growth in the upper jaw before placing dental implants. It may help people who have lost teeth and have very little bone in the sinus area.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be generally healthy with no serious medical conditions.
- You need to have good or fair oral hygiene.
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You have very little bone (3 mm or less) in the back of your upper jaw where teeth are missing.
- The bone ridge in your upper jaw must be wide enough (5 mm or more) for a dental implant.
- You cannot be a heavy smoker (more than 20 cigarettes a day) or abuse alcohol.

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.
This trial compares two surgical methods to help place dental implants in the upper back jaw when there isn’t enough bone height. It may help you and your dentist choose the safest approach to create enough support for the implant.
This study tests a new type of bone graft putty for people who need a sinus lift before getting dental implants. It may be an option if you have some existing bone and are generally healthy or have well-controlled diabetes.
This trial tests a bone graft made of your own bone mixed with cow bone (Deproteinized Bovine Bone) to rebuild the upper jaw in the sinus area. It compares this mixed bone graft to using only cow bone for a sinus lift, helping you get implants when there is not enough bone height.
This trial tests a new combination of materials (erythropoietin, albumin, and platelet-rich fibrin) to help rebuild bone in the upper jaw during a sinus lift procedure. If you need a dental implant but have limited bone height, this approach may allow the implant to be placed at the same time as the lift.
This trial tests whether adding stem cell signaling molecules to bone graft material helps new bone form in the upper jaw, which could improve the success of dental implants. It is for people with very thin bone in the upper jaw who need sinus lifts on both sides.
