SOCKET PRESERVATION

This trial tests whether a graft made from donated teeth (allogeneic dentin matrix) can preserve the jawbone's shape and volume after a tooth extraction as well as or better than a standard bone graft. Adults aged 20–55 with a single-rooted tooth that cannot be saved and has heal…

This study tested whether taking omega-3 fish oil supplements after a tooth extraction helps preserve the bone in the front of the mouth. Ten adults with non-restorable teeth received omega-3, and researchers measured pain and bone changes over three months. The results are early…

This study tested two ways to preserve bone after a tooth is pulled in the front of the mouth. One method uses a block made from the patient's own tooth and blood components, while the other uses a standard bone graft material. Twenty healthy adults with a non-restorable front to…

This study tested whether a graft made from a patient's own extracted tooth can preserve the jawbone as well as a standard animal-based bone substitute. 26 adults with non-restorable front teeth received either the tooth graft or the standard material. After 6 months, the researc…

This study tested whether a gel made from chitosan (a natural substance) can better preserve the jawbone after a tooth is pulled, compared to letting the socket heal on its own. Twenty-six adults with at least one hopeless tooth in the back of the jaw participated. Researchers us…

This study tested two different materials used to preserve the jawbone after a tooth is pulled. Forty adults received either a cow-derived bone graft or a human donor bone graft. Researchers measured how much the bone changed in size and density over six months using 3D scans. Th…

This study looked at how well a special bone graft material (xenograft) helps preserve the socket left after a tooth is pulled. Sixteen men with a hopeless back tooth had the socket filled with this material. After 4 months, the researchers used 3D scans and tissue samples to che…
