NCT ID NCT05536115
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a dental paste called Alveogyl in 120 people who developed a dry socket after a tooth extraction. The paste is placed into the socket by a dentist to relieve pain and help the gum heal. Researchers measured pain levels and healing over 7 days. The trial is already completed.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Alveogyl (a medicated dental paste)
- What this could lead to
- If confirmed effective, Alveogyl could become a standard, easy-to-use treatment for dry socket pain and healing.
- What could go wrong
- This is a single-arm study with no comparison group, so results may not prove Alveogyl is better than other treatments or natural healing.
