Can an oxygen gel heal medication-damaged jaw bone better than a blood-derived patch?
NCT ID NCT07725107
First seen Jul 24, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026
Summary
This trial compares two treatments applied during surgery to help heal jaw bone damage caused by bisphosphonates or similar drugs. One is an oxygen-based gel, the other is a membrane made from the patient's own platelets. Researchers will measure how completely the bone and soft tissue heal, and whether patients have less pain afterward.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- an oxygen-based gel (Blue®m) or platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) membrane applied during surgery
- What this could lead to
- If one of these approaches works better, it could offer a simpler, more effective way to heal jaw bone damage caused by certain medications.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 36 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Both treatments are applied during surgery, and healing may still fail.
