Dental bone graft showdown: your own bone vs donor bone
NCT ID NCT07412067
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether using a donor bone graft (allograft) works as well as using your own bone (autograft) to repair defects where a tooth infection has damaged the surrounding bone. Fifty adults with these defects will receive one of the two grafts along with a collagen membrane during dental surgery. Healing will be tracked with 3D X-rays over a year to see which approach leads to better bone regrowth.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- bone graft (autograft or allograft) with collagen membrane
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that allografts work as well as autografts for healing these dental defects, offering a less invasive option.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 50 patients, so results may not apply widely. The procedure is surgical and carries risks like infection or graft failure.
