Comparing two bone grafting methods for dental implants
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial compares two surgical techniques for building up narrow jawbone before placing a dental implant. It may be an option if you have mild to moderate bone loss in your jaw.

This trial compares a computer-guided technique versus a free-hand method to widen a narrow jawbone in the lower back mouth. If you have a thin jawbone and need dental implants, this study tests a more precise way to create enough space for them.
This trial compares two methods to widen the upper front jaw bone so dental implants can be placed. One method uses a piece of your own bone, the other uses the existing bone to create more space. The goal is to find which technique works best for people with a narrow jaw ridge.
This study tests a new, less invasive way to build up the bone in the back of your upper jaw so you can get a dental implant. It uses a special bone graft material and your own blood components to help the bone grow.
This trial compares two ways of placing a dental implant in the jawbone to see which leads to less bone loss around the implant. It may help if you are missing a back tooth and have enough jawbone after a bone graft.
