NCT ID NCT03495700
First seen May 08, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a special mix of the patient's own blood cells (L-PRF) with bone substitute helps grow new jawbone better than standard bone substitute alone. Twenty-three adults with thin jawbone needing dental implants in the upper back jaw took part. After a 6-month healing period, bone growth was measured using 3D scans.
