Bone graft putty may strengthen immediate dental implants
NCT ID NCT07709676
First seen Jul 16, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether placing a synthetic bone graft material called beta-tricalcium phosphate into the gap around a dental implant helps it stay stable and promotes bone growth. The study involves 16 adults aged 20 to 50 who need an upper front tooth replaced immediately after extraction and have a gap larger than 2 mm. Half receive the graft, half do not, and implant stability and bone density are measured over 6 months.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- beta-tricalcium phosphate bone graft putty placed into the gap around a dental implant
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this approach could improve the success and durability of immediate dental implants in patients with large gaps between the implant and the tooth socket.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 16 patients, so results may not apply to everyone. The bone graft material may not integrate well or could cause complications.
