Can a 'No-Cut' gum surgery regrow lost bone?
NCT ID NCT07737678
First seen Jul 30, 2026 · Last updated Aug 05, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This trial tests a new surgical technique that avoids cutting the gum tissue between teeth to repair deep bone defects caused by gum disease. The procedure uses a synthetic bone graft and a special gel to help the bone regenerate. The study includes 60 adults aged 35 to 65 with advanced gum disease and specific types of bone defects. Researchers will measure how much bone fills in and whether gum pocket depth and attachment improve.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- a synthetic bone graft (beta-tricalcium phosphate and calcium sulfate) and cross-linked hyaluronic acid, delivered via a minimally invasive surgical technique
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this approach could offer a less invasive way to regenerate bone lost to gum disease, potentially saving teeth and reducing the need for more extensive surgery.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial with only 60 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Risks include infection, graft failure, or no improvement in bone fill.
