Could your own tooth help your jawbone heal faster?
NCT ID NCT07798206
First seen Sep 01, 2026 · Last updated Sep 02, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether placing a graft made from the patient's own tooth and blood components into an extraction socket improves bone healing compared with letting the socket heal on its own. Adults with non-restorable teeth will receive either the graft or no graft, and researchers will measure new bone formation and density after three months. The goal is to see if this natural approach can support better healing for future dental work.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- A mix of ground dentin from the extracted tooth and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) made from the patient's blood, placed into the extraction socket to promote bone healing.
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this approach could speed up and improve bone healing after tooth extraction, potentially making future dental implants more successful.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial, so the benefits are uncertain. The procedure involves surgery and may carry risks like infection or incomplete healing.
