Summary

This study tests if adding a special growth factor (rhPDGF) to donated bone particles helps rebuild jawbone better than using just salt water. About 44 adults who need dental implants but have thin jawbone will take part. Researchers will measure new bone growth after 4 months using scans and tissue samples.
