Comparing two collagen membranes for dental implant bone augmentation
Official title: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial to Compare Two Collagen Membranes for Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) Around Dental Implants Restored with Monolithic Zirconia Single Crowns Using Three Different Veneering Designs
Run by University of Geneva, Switzerland · NCT06724783 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study tests whether a new type of collagen membrane can help improve bone stability better than a standard one for people getting dental implants to replace a single tooth.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older who require an implant-supported crown in the aesthetic region and can undergo a one-stage bone augmentation procedure.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with large bone defects requiring a two-stage augmentation procedure or those with allergies to collagen or implant materials may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This clinical trial aims to compare the effectiveness of two types of collagen membranes used during bone augmentation procedures for dental implants. Participants will receive an implant with simultaneous bone augmentation and will be monitored for bone stability and the occurrence of ceramic restoration chipping over a period of five years. The study will evaluate whether a new compressed collagen membrane provides better bone stability compared to a standard membrane. The trial focuses on patients needing a single tooth replacement in the aesthetic zone.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved outcomes in bone stability and reduced complications for patients receiving dental implants.
How similar studies have gone: Previous studies have shown promising results with guided bone regeneration techniques, but the specific comparison of these two collagen membranes is novel.
