Olive oil gel could replace bone grafts in dental implants
NCT ID NCT07368114
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether ozonated olive oil gel can help dental implants fuse with the jawbone as well as a standard injectable bone graft. Sixteen adults needing a tooth replacement received an immediate implant after extraction, with either the oil gel or bone graft applied around it. Researchers measured implant stability and bone density over 6 months to compare the two approaches.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- ozonated olive oil gel
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a simpler, less invasive alternative to bone grafts for dental implants.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small Phase 2 trial with only 16 participants, so results may not apply widely. The ozonated olive oil gel may not perform as well as standard bone grafts.
