About this study

Official title: Assessment of Bone Volume Changes in Immediate Implant Placement Using Allograft Versus Xenograft in Mandibular Molars: Randomized Clinical Trial

Twenty recruited patients indicated for immediate implant placement in mandibular molar sites are divided into two groups, with each group containing ten patients. One group assigned for placement of xenograft after molar extraction and immediate implant placement, while the other group received allograft as space-filling material.

Being tested
Xenograft, Allograft

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • XenograftProcedure or surgery

    The jumping gap and surrounding space will be augmented and packed with Xenograft

  • AllograftProcedure or surgery

    The jumping gap and surrounding space will be augmented and packed with Allograft

What is being measured

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

  1. Horizontal bone thickness in millimeters

    Two CBCT images will be taken, one immediately after surgery (baseline) and the other at 6 months post-surgically

    Measured: 6 months postoperative

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Vertical bone height in millimeters

    Two CBCT images will be taken, one 2 days after surgery (baseline) and the other at 6 months post-surgically

    Measured: 6 months postoperative

  2. Pain intensity

    The pain will be recorded by participants at 1, 3, and 7 days after surgery using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), which ranges from 0 to 10. The minimum score is 0, indicating no pain, and the maximum score is 10, representing the worst possible pain. Higher scores on the VAS indicate worse outcomes in terms of pain experienced.

    Measured: One week postoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Xenograft and Allograft in people with Bone Volume and Immediate Implant With Bone Graft, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 6 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Aug 2025. 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 Egypt. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Ahmed Mohamed Tawfik, BSc (+201095544285, ahmed-tawfik@dentistry.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Horizontal bone thickness in millimeters (time frame: 6 months postoperative). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06962878, which also lists 10 linked publications.

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 6 Aug 2025.
