ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking to compare two different methods for helping preserve the bone structure in the jaw after a tooth extraction, specifically when removing impacted lower wisdom teeth. The two methods being studied are Demineralized Dentin Allograft (DDA), which uses bone material from a donor, and Demineralized Dentin Autograft (Auto-DD), which uses the patient's own bone. Researchers want to see which method works better in maintaining the shape and health of the jawbone after surgery.

To be eligible for this trial, participants need to be between 25 and 35 years old and have specific dental conditions, including having similar difficulty with both lower wisdom teeth that need to be removed. They should also be healthy without any serious medical conditions or habits like smoking. If you join the study, you'll have the chance to receive one of the two treatments, and your progress will be monitored to see how well the bone structure is preserved. It's important to note that this trial is not currently recruiting participants, so it may not be open for enrollment right now.
