Study Summary

This trial is testing different combinations of bone graft materials to see which results in the best growth of new bone 18-20 weeks after the surgery.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for non-pregnant women, including those post-hysterectomy, tubal ligation, or menopause. Participants should be nonsmokers or light smokers (less than 10 cigarettes per day), have a tooth excluding molars needing extraction with enough bone height and space for an implant. Those with active infections other than periodontitis, heavy smokers, certain medical conditions affecting healing, or on specific medications are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study aims to compare the effectiveness of different graft materials in dental ridge preservation after tooth extraction. It will measure new bone formation using DFDBA fibers alone versus particulate form and combinations with xenograft material over approximately 18-20 weeks.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While not explicitly stated in the provided information, potential side effects may include discomfort at the site of surgery, swelling, bruising, infection risk at the graft site and delayed wound healing.
