New gel could boost bone healing for dental implants
NCT ID NCT07099846
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a gel made from hyaluronic acid and polynucleotides, mixed with a bone graft, helps preserve bone after a tooth extraction. 40 adults needing a single tooth pulled will either get the gel treatment or let the socket heal naturally. After 4 months, a dental implant is placed using a digital workflow, and bone changes are measured with 3D X-rays.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- bovine-derived bone graft mixed with hyaluronic acid and polynucleotide gel
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could improve bone healing after tooth extraction and make dental implants more successful.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small early-stage trial with only 40 people, so results may not apply to everyone. The gel might not improve bone preservation compared to natural healing.
