Building jawbone width for upper back teeth implants
This trial tests a new technique to make the upper jaw wide enough for dental implants. It may help people who need implants for missing upper back teeth but don't have enough bone width.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 20 and 60 years old.
- You are missing teeth in the upper jaw area (between the bicuspids) and need implants.
- You have enough bone height but not enough bone width in that area.
- You are in good general health and are not a smoker.
- You have good oral hygiene.
- You have not had bone grafting in that area before.

This trial tests two ways of splitting a narrow upper jawbone to make room for dental implants. It may help you if your jawbone is too narrow for implants but tall enough.
This trial tests two techniques for widening a narrow jawbone so dental implants can be placed, all in one surgery. It is for people who have lost at least one tooth and have a bone width between 3 and 5 mm.
This trial tests a method to rebuild thin jawbones so they can support dental implants. It is for people who have lost a tooth and have had a previous implant or bone graft that didn't work.
This study compares two techniques for placing dental implants in a narrow upper jaw. Both methods aim to widen the bone so a standard implant can be placed, potentially avoiding the need for a separate bone graft.
This study compares two ways of making the jawbone wider in the back of the lower jaw so that dental implants can be placed. The goal is to see which method works better for people with a naturally narrow jawbone.
This trial tests different mixtures of your own bone and donor bone to rebuild the jaw where teeth are missing, so dental implants can fit. It aims to find the best combination for strong, lasting results.
