Can a bone graft boost jawbone healing around new implants?
NCT ID NCT07761195
First seen Aug 12, 2026 · Last updated Aug 13, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether placing a bone graft material (Gen-Os) in the socket right after tooth extraction helps the jawbone heal better around a new dental implant. Forty healthy adults who need implants on both sides of the lower front jaw will receive a graft on one side and no graft on the other. Using X-rays taken at 1 and 3 months, researchers will measure bone microstructure with fractal analysis to see if the grafted side shows more complex, healthier bone.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Bone grafting with Gen-Os bone graft material placed in the extraction socket during immediate implant placement
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that bone grafting improves early bone healing around immediate dental implants, potentially guiding better implant procedures.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial (40 people) using X-ray image analysis as a proxy for bone quality, not direct clinical outcomes. Results may not apply to all patients or implant sites.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: Adults aged 18 to 40 years. Requiring bilateral immediate implant placement in the mandibular anterior region. Indication for tooth extraction in the mandibular anterior region. Systemically healthy (ASA I). Adequate bone volume for immediate implant placement. Willing and able to attend the scheduled follow-up visits. Routine panoramic radiographs suitable for fractal analysis. Provided written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: Age younger than 18 years or older than 40 years. Systemic diseases affecting bone metabolism. Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis, or other metabolic bone disorders. Current use of bisphosphonates, corticosteroids, immunosuppressive drugs, or other medications affecting bone healing. Pregnancy or breastfeeding. Active infection at the implant site. Heavy smoking or tobacco use. Previous radiotherapy to the head and neck region. Inadequate bone volume preventing immediate implant placement. Inability to attend follow-up visits. Refusal or inability to provide written informed consent.
