Dental implant breakthrough: sticky bone may beat PRF alone
NCT ID NCT07433920
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests three ways to fill the gap between a tooth root and a new dental implant placed right after tooth removal. The methods are: a blood concentrate (L-PRF), a mix of the patient's own tooth particles with PRF (sticky tooth), or a mix of bone graft with PRF (sticky bone). About 45 adults with a failing front tooth will get one of these treatments during computer-guided implant surgery. The goal is to see which method keeps the bone and gums most stable over 6 months.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Medically healthy patients according to the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status classification system; only patients belonging to ASA I and ASA II categories will be included in this study. * Age \> 18 years. * Patients presenting with one non-restorable hopeless anterior tooth due to extensive caries, cervical/root fracture, vertical or oblique root fracture, multiple failed endodontic treatments, or root resorption. * Sufficient apical/palatal bone to obtain primary implant stability. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients belonging to ASA III, ASA IV and ASA V will be excluded. * Vertical root fracture involving the labial aspect of the root planned to be retained as the facial shield. * Horizontal root fracture that is too far apically located. * Presence of acute (active) periapical infection. * Large chronic periapical lesion. * Lack of sufficient bone apical to the extraction socket to obtain primary stability. \* Ankylosed tooth positioned too apically in relation to adjacent teeth.
