Summary

"This trial will compare two different treatments for preserving the bone in the back of the mouth after a tooth extraction. One treatment uses OsteoGen® Plug and the other uses Freeze-dried Bone Al

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals who need their wisdom teeth removed and have a healthy outer wall of the socket. It's not suitable for those with certain health conditions or habits that could affect bone healing.
What is being tested?
The study compares two methods of preserving jawbone after wisdom tooth removal: OsteoGen Plug (a synthetic material) versus freeze-dried bone graft with a collagen barrier.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects may include discomfort, swelling, infection at the extraction site, and reactions to materials used in either method.
