Two bovine bone grafts in sinus lift with or without jaw marrow blood
Official title: Comparison of Two Anorganic Xenografts in the Lateral Window Maxillary Sinus Augmentation Technique With or Without Mandibular Bone Marrow Blood Admixture: Histomorphometric, Radiographic and Clinical Analysis
Run by Universidad del Desarrollo · NCT07904065 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study tests whether adding a small amount of jawbone marrow blood to two bovine bone grafts helps create more new bone and height in sinus lift surgery for adults needing implants.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults 25–65 who need sinus lift augmentation in the posterior maxilla and meet health and imaging criteria.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who do not show improved bone formation with marrow blood or who have adverse reactions to graft materials may not benefit.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
Adults aged 25–65 with insufficient bone height in the upper jaw will receive lateral window sinus augmentation using one of four graft combinations: Bio-Oss alone, InterOss alone, Bio-Oss plus jawbone marrow blood, or InterOss plus jawbone marrow blood. Each sinus is randomly assigned to a treatment, and patients with two treated sides may receive different treatments on each side. The trial looks at how much new vital bone forms and how much height increases, comparing the two graft materials and the effect of adding mandibular marrow blood. Autologous marrow blood is collected minimally invasively from the jaw to mix with the graft in the relevant arms. The goal is to determine whether mixing with marrow blood improves outcomes and whether the two grafts perform similarly.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, patients could experience more robust bone formation and greater height gain, potentially improving implant success and longevity.
How similar studies have gone: Prior evidence suggests autogenous or marrow-derived cells can enhance bone formation with grafts, but direct comparisons in sinus augmentation are limited.
