ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is investigating a surgical method called alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) to help reduce bone loss after a tooth extraction. When a tooth is removed, the surrounding bone can change shape and shrink, especially in the first few months. This study will look at how effective ARP is in preventing these changes and maintaining the bone structure over time.

To participate in the trial, you need to be at least 18 years old and scheduled for a tooth extraction. However, if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, a smoker, or have certain health conditions, you may not be eligible. If you decide to join, you will receive the ARP treatment and will be monitored to see how well it works in preserving the bone. This study is not yet recruiting participants, but it aims to provide valuable information for future dental care after extractions.
