Filter by:The aim of this trial is to compare the effect of autogenous demineralized dentin graft combined with injectable PRF loaded with metronidazole (sticky demineralized tooth releasing metronidazole) versus autogenous demineralized dentin graft combined with injectable PRF (sticky demineralized tooth) versus autogenous demineralized dentin graft (ADDG) alone on alveolar ridge preservation after extraction of non restorable, infected single-rooted teeth
The aim of the current study is to compare the effect socket sealing with flowable resin composite compared to dense polytetrafluoroethylene membrane after filling the extraction site with xenograft particles in terms of soft and hard tissue changes, procedural time, post operative pain, patients' satisfaction, and cost effectiveness.
Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) is an invaluable and beneficial surgical technique adopted when there is the need to augment an alveolar atrophy. Strong clinical and histologic evidence exists on the effectiveness and predictability of GBR in bone augmentation of ridge deficiencies. On the other hand, it is well known that GBR remains a challenge as in the most extreme cases, it is considered a highly technique-sensitive surgical procedure. Whilst there are numerous reviews which report the average incidence of complications in GBR, there is still insufficient evidence and manuscripts reporting a direct correlation between a specific biomaterial (membrane or scaffold) and observed complications. Only one recent systematic review and meta-analysis focused on wound healing complications following GBR for ridge augmentation procedures. Authors explored the complication rate based on the membrane type and on the timing of the first sign of soft tissue complications following bone augmentation procedures. They reported a complication rate of 17% of the overall soft tissue complications, including membrane exposure, soft tissue dehiscence, and acute infection (abscess). This estimate is consistent with that reported (12%) in a more recent systematic appraisal of the evidence on all types of complications in GBR (3). However, when horizontal augmentation procedures were reviewed, a higher rate (21%) of complications was reported within the first 18 months of a GBR procedure. This estimate was inclusive of all possible biologic complications following GBR whilst the rate of membrane exposure was of 23%. Vertical bone augmentation represents one of the most challenging bone regenerative procedures in surgical dentistry. This is because of the inherent difficulties of the surgical procedure and the high risk of complications. The primary aim of this procedure is to recreate alveolar bone in a vertical direction (without the support of any pre-existing walls) and enable recreation of a more favourable anatomy for the restoration of the edentulous site. Evidence on a variety of treatment options has been produced over the last 15 years including distraction osteogenesis, onlay bone grafting, and vertical ridge augmentation (VRA). Systematic reviews evaluating the efficacy of different surgical procedures for VRA either in a staged or a simultaneous fashion, reported a range of vertical bone gain of 2-8 mm. This gain was gradually lost (1.27 to 2.0mm) between 1 to 7 years post-surgery and a wide range of complications (0- 45.5%) has been reported. The aim of this study is to assess and compare incidence of complications and percentage of vertical bone gain when using four different barrier membranes in combination with 50/50 autogenous and xenogenous bone material in VRA procedures. Secondary aims will be to evaluate and compare early and late soft tissue wound healing, gingival microvasculature and structure, patient reported outcomes and the prevalence of need for further bone augmentation and need for soft tissue grafting. Additionally, this study will also aim to assess and compare histomorphometry and histochemistry analyses of core biopsies obtained before implant placement between the four different barrier membranes.
Background- Periodontitis, an inflammatory disease of the periodontium, is one of the major causes of tooth mortality. Of all the bone destruction patterns that are present in periodontitis, horizontal bone loss is the most common. Therefore, treatment modalities that help in rebuilding horizontal defects are vital in total periodontal reconstruction. Rationale- The supracrestal bone regeneration in cases of horizontal bone loss has remained a mirage with very little recorded success. Volume stable collagen matrix(VCMX), is a porous, cross-linked collagen matrix of porcine origin designed to facilitate cell and vascular ingrowth and soft-tissue volume augmentation, may be beneficial in maintaining the supracrestal space and may overcome the limitation of bone regeneration in horizontal defects. Evidence has shown that Low level laser therapy(LLLT) based on principal of biostimulation of osteoclastic cells, can have a positive effect on the regeneration of supracrestal bone in horizontal bone destruction. So, this study will be first of its kind using combination of VCMX with LLLT to assess regenerative outcome in treatment of horizontal bone destruction in patients with periodontitis. Objectives: To assess clinical and radiographic regenerative outcome of periodontal tissues using LLLT and placing VCMX with single flap approach(SFA) in treatment of horizontal bone loss as compared to LLLT and SFA. Method: A total of 60 patients will be randomly divided into three groups: Test Group 1: VCMX +LLLT +SFA, Test Group 2:LLLT+SFA, and Control group: SFA. Periodontal parameters will be evaluated at baseline, 3, 6, and 9 months. CBCT will be evaluated at baseline and 9 months. Expected outcome: VCMX with Laser could achieve supracrestal bone regeneration in horizontal bone loss.
The aim of the comparative study is to evaluate the density and amount of new bone formed (bone height gain)around dental implant placed simultaneously in posterior maxilla after closed sinus floor elevation using Osseodensification burs versus electrical mallet.
The design is a single blinded, dual comparative study of ultrasound versus micro-CT/LASCA in one study group. Up to a total of 140 subjects registered will be recruited. Subjects who are treatment planned for extraction of a hopeless tooth and socket augmentation with bone graft and are planned for a dental implant surgery. The socket will be evaluated before the extraction and multi-time points during healing until an implant is placed with various evaluation tools, including ultrasound.
Tooth extraction triggers a cascade of biological events mediated by both the local inflammatory response that follows the surgical intervention and the deprivation of masticatory stimulation of the periodontium, which elicit an alteration of the homoeostasis and structural integrity of the periodontal tissues. Bone remodeling kicks off after tooth loss and continues for several months with most changes taking place in the first three months. Interestingly, Schmidt-Schultz and Schultz, found that intact growth factors are conserved even in the collagenous extracellular matrix of ancient human bone and teeth. Thus, the application of stored dentin may have similar benefits as fresh dentin, preserving intact growth factors for a prolonged period avoiding the need to perform multiple surgical interventions simultaneously. The volume of the particulate dentin is more than twice of the original root volume. Thus, the idea of using autogenous stored mineralized dentin grafts (ASMDG) in ARP evolved.
