About this study

Official title: The Effectiveness of Carbonate Apatite Bone Graft for Alveolar Ridge Preservation: A Clinical, Radiographic, and Histomorphometric Study

This study will examine whether the use of synthetic carbon apatite bone graft material will lead to more bone formation compared to human derived allograft and bovine derived xenograft material.

Read the detailed description

Bone grafts are commonly placed to increase the amount of bone right after tooth extraction and prepare the site for future dental implant placement.

45 patients requiring a tooth extraction will be recruited and randomized to receive either allograft, xenograft, or synthetic bone grafting.

Socket preservation

What participants receive

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

  • Socket preservationDevice

    After tooth extraction, the socket will be filled with a collagen plug and bone graft.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Histological bone density

    Histomorphometry

    Measured: 4 months

  2. Presence of bone turnover proteins

    Immunohistochemistry

    Measured: 4 months

  3. Alveolar volumetric changes following tooth extraction

    Digitally measured alveolar ridge changes in mm^3 using CBCT

    Measured: 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Socket preservation in people with Healing Wound, run by University of Michigan 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 4 inclusion and 12 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 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?

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?

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?

Clinical alveolar ridge dimension changes (time frame: 4 months). 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 24 Mar 2026.
