U.S., June 16 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07646795) titled 'Alveolar Ridge Reconstruction in Post-extraction Sites Using a Magnesium Resorbable Membrane. An Explorative Study' on June 09.
Brief Summary: When a tooth is removed, the surrounding bone and gum tissue naturally shrink over time. This shrinkage can make it harder to place a dental implant later and may affect the appearance of the smile. To reduce bone loss after extraction, surgeons can fill the socket with a bone substitute material and cover it with a protective membrane.
This study tests a new type of membrane made from magnesium metal (NOVAMag(R)). Unlike standard resorbable membranes, the magnesium membrane is rigid enough ...
