New bone graft blend could improve dental implant success
NCT ID NCT06275789
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares a new mixture of two bone graft materials to a standard one for preserving the jawbone after a tooth is pulled. Thirty healthy adults who need a premolar or molar extracted and plan to get a dental implant will receive the new graft. Researchers will measure changes in bone width and height over 4 months and check bone quality under a microscope.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- bone graft material (mix of demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft and deproteinized bovine bone mineral)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a better option for preserving jawbone shape and density after tooth extraction, improving future implant success.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The new graft mix may not outperform the standard material.
