Bone Graft Options for Gum Disease Surgery
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests two bone-replacement materials (a synthetic bone substitute and a natural bone graft) placed during gum surgery to see which one better helps rebuild bone and gum support around teeth with deep pockets.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have Stage III gum disease (periodontitis).
- You have at least one deep gum pocket deeper than 5 mm even after non-surgical treatment.
- Your mouth is fairly clean (plaque and bleeding scores under 20%).
- You are not a heavy smoker (no more than 20 cigarettes per day).
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking certain bone-affecting medications.

This trial tests a new treatment for deep gum disease using a synthetic bone graft and a special gel to help rebuild bone around your teeth. It is for people with stage III gum disease who have not had gum treatment in the past six months.
This trial tests whether a graft made from your own extracted tooth works as well as a traditional bone graft, both combined with a special enamel protein, to repair bone loss from gum disease.
This study compares two surgical methods to repair bone loss caused by advanced gum disease. It tests whether adding a small piece of connective tissue (graft) under the gum improves healing and bone fill.
This trial studies a specific gum surgery technique plus a biologic product to help fill deep gum/bone defects from periodontitis (gum disease). It may help reduce gum pocket depth and improve healing around affected teeth.
This trial tests whether biological agents can help heal deep gum bone defects that remain after standard non-surgical cleaning. It may be an option for people who still have deep pockets around their teeth and need a minimally invasive surgical procedure.
This study tests two types of gum-graft materials to see which works better for rebuilding bone next to deep pockets caused by gum disease. Both materials are used during a minor surgical procedure to help your gums and bone heal stronger.
