Active clinical trials for "Alveolar Bone Loss"

The purpose of this research study is to shorten the treatment time course for patients who are scheduled for surgery to have a dental implant(s) placed into the upper front part of their mouths and need to have more bone in their jaws to support the implant.

This study is aiming to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes after complete versus incomplete removal of granulation tissue during modified minimally invasive surgical technique for management of periodontal intrabony defects in patients with chronic periodontitis.

The aim of this pilot study was to assess survival rates and peri-implant bone loss of two narrow-diameter titanium-zirconium implants supporting maxillary and mandibular overdentures during an observation time of 3 years. The masticatory performance, self-reported chewing ability and change of oral health impact profile (OHIP) after rehabilitation were also investigated.

The purpose of this research study is to determine whether this study treatment can improve the bone structure of the upper front part of the jaw in patients who are scheduled for surgery to have a dental implant(s) placed into the upper front part of their mouths and need to have more bone in their jaws to support the implant, so that a dental implant can later be inserted.

The purpose of the study is to gain experience of safety and efficacy with MD05 in man in alveolar bone regeneration.

The aim of this study is to evaluate clinically and radiographically soft tissue around single-implant crowns and peri-implant bone resorption respectively by using zirconia implants or titanium implants in horizontally deficient partially edentulous ridges.

The reduction in alveolar bone dimensions is an inevitable outcome after tooth extraction due to the healing events that results in bone modeling/remodeling. Alveolar ridge preservation is a successful approach that aids in reducing these changes greatly. Various techniques have been employed to achieve that outcome utilizing bone grafts and/or membrane. Dentin graft is a promising type that can overcome many of the limitations facing mainstream grafts. Autogenous source serve the advantage of providing graft with no cross-infection risk or immunogenicity. Moreover, the unique structure of dentin makes it suitable for osteoinduction and osteoconduction that yields favorite bone regeneration outcomes. Demineralization of dentin is essential to release trapped growth factors, expose collagen fibrils and enhance the grafts degradability and replacement by native tissues. Many acids have been investigated for the use in chairside preparation of the dentin graft and hence, clinicians are faced with different choices but little evidence regarding the acid which yield s better outcomes.

Ph.D project: Periapical bone healing after apicectomy with and without retrograde root filling. The aim of this study is to assess periapical bone healing after apicectomy without a filling and apicectomy combined with a retrograde filling material, MTA. Further, we will estimate risk factors in non-healing cases. Study hypothesis: There is no difference in treatment outcome between: Periapical bone healing after apicectomy with retrograde root filling and Periapical bone healing after apicectomy without retrograde root filling

Alveolar bone atrophy post-extraction has been well documented in the past years. normal healing event results in a minimal loss of vertical height (around 1 mm), but a substantial loss of width in the buccal-lingual plane (4-6 mm). Alveolar socket preservation is thought to deal with this issue as to prevent the loss of alveolar bone dimensions post extraction in the case of delayed implant placement
