Could a Bone-Building hormone make dental implants stronger?
NCT ID NCT07459075
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether adding parathyroid hormone (PTH) to a standard bone graft helps rebuild the upper jawbone for dental implants. Thirty healthy adults with thin jawbone will receive either a bone graft alone or a bone graft mixed with PTH. Researchers will measure bone density, look at bone samples under a microscope, and check a bone-healing marker to see if PTH makes a difference.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
parathyroid hormone (PTH)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could lead to a better way to build up jawbone for dental implants, making them more stable and successful.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study with only 30 people, so results may not apply widely. PTH may not improve bone growth more than the graft alone, and there could be side effects from the hormone.
