New biomaterial may keep jawbone strong after losing multiple teeth
NCT ID NCT02903667
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a collagen-based material placed into fresh tooth sockets after extraction can reduce bone shrinkage. Forty adults with multiple teeth removed received the material and later dental implants. The goal was to see if the treatment preserves jawbone shape and density over six months to three years, helping maintain a good foundation for implants.
