About this study

Official title: Comparison of Porcine Collagen Membrane and Bovine Collagen Wound Dressing in Human Extraction Sites With DFDBA Graft: A Randomized Controlled Trial

The purpose of this study is to compare porcine collagen membrane and bovine collagen wound dressing in human tooth extraction sites. The outcomes measured will be soft tissue thickness changes as well as bone density changes.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of a porcine collagen membrane to a bovine collagen wound dressing for atraumatic extractions. These are both commonly used as a barrier and containment material over atraumatic extraction sites that are grafted for future implant placement. The study will include nonsmoking adults aged 18-65 requiring premolar or anterior tooth extraction and graft procedures, who are in good general health and willing to provide informed consent. Exclusion criteria include a history of radiation therapy or bisphosphonate use, pregnancy or breastfeeding, systemic conditions that affect bone healing, contraindications to dental implants, and inability to attend follow-up visits. The study will be a double-blind randomized controlled trial involving 24 patients who will be assigned to two groups. Prior to tooth extraction, baseline data will be collected; including gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) sampling, and a limited field Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) radiograph. A reference digital scan will be taken to measure volumetric changes in soft tissue. Routine, atraumatic extraction of the tooth under local anesthetic will be performed. Following extraction, hydrated AllOss 50/50 DFDBA:FDBA (demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft:freeze-dried bone allograft) bone particulate will be condensed following a routine protocol. One group will receive Mucograft Seal over the graft, and the other group will receive Integra HeliPlug. Patients will be seen at a standard 2-week follow up to remove sutures, have a GCF sampling at the adjacent teeth and take another digital scan. Patients will be seen for an additional 6-week follow up to take a small (2mm) incisional biopsy for histological analysis. Another digital scan and GCF sampling will be taken. Final evaluation will be 3 months post-extraction and will include a localized CBCT evaluation for implant planning and another measure of soft tissue changes with a digital scan. At the time of implant surgery, the core of bone removed during osteotomy will be histologically analyzed for percentage of vital bone. Adverse events will also be recorded at each visit. The primary outcome measure will be the histological composition of tissue at 6 weeks and volumetric tissue changes. The secondary outcome measures will be bone density changes on the post-operative CBCT and inflammatory bio-markers present at baseline, 2-weeks via GCF sampling.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Soft Tissue Thickness in mm

    Soft tissue biopsy to determine tissue thickness, measured in mm

    Measured: 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Bone Density Measurements

    Bone density measurements to assess vital bone, bone tissue that retains living cells and a blood supply, at the extraction site CBCT measurement of bone density at baseline and three months, measured in Hounsfield units

    Measured: Baseline, 3 Months

  2. Interleukin-1beta

    Interleukin-1beta (IL-1β), a pro-inflammatory cytokine primarily produced by immune cells and measured in pg/mL, will be assessed from gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) samples around the extraction site taken at baseline, 2 weeks and 6 weeks.

    Measured: Baseline, 2 Weeks & 6 Weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Porcine Collagen Membrane and Bovine Collagen Dressing in people with Wound Heal, run by University of Nebraska at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Feb 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Soft Tissue Thickness in mm (time frame: 6 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Feb 2026.
