Study Summary

This trial aims to compare the results of two different methods used during guided bone regeneration procedures after 6 months.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for individuals needing ridge augmentation, a dental procedure to rebuild the jawbone. Participants should be suitable candidates for guided bone regeneration but cannot have conditions that would interfere with bone healing or be taking medications affecting bone turnover.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study is examining if making small holes in the jawbone (intra-marrow penetrations) during guided bone regeneration helps improve clinical and histologic outcomes after 6 months compared to not making these holes.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Potential side effects may include discomfort at the site of surgery, swelling, bruising, infection risk, and possible delayed healing. The exact side effects will depend on individual patient responses.
