Dental implant study tests which graft best keeps your jawbone thick
NCT ID NCT07449806
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how well two different bone graft materials preserve the thickness of the front jawbone after a tooth is pulled and an implant is placed right away. About 26 adults who need a front tooth replaced will be randomly assigned to receive one of the two graft types. The main goal is to measure bone changes using 3D X-rays over six months.
