Filter by:split-mouth RCT, 25 months follow up. GBR protocol with LPRF as grafting material in the test group and autogenous bone with DBBM as grafting material in the control group.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety of placing TiO2 scaffolds in alveolar ridge and to evaluate if the scaffold material contributes to maintain the anatomy and the volume of the alveolar process after tooth extraction.
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.
Aim of the current randomized clinical trial is to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of computer-guided ridge splitting approach assisted by artificial intelligence versus conventional approach combined with simultaneous implant Placement.

Customized bone blocks need CBCT and digital software to design the block needed to rehabilitate. Some advantages are reduced surgical time and better adaptation of the graft, leading to less complications. Objectives: The primary aim of this study is to determine the bone regeneration capacity through a histological study and the bone volumetric changes of allograft bone blocks in the posterior site of the mandible. The secondary outcome will be to assess the survival and success rate of dental implants placed in the allograft regenerated area. Materials and Methods: After studying the CBCT to regenerate the posterior sites of the mandible, the investigators will design CAD/CAM freeze- dried bone allograft to fit exactly on the defect morphology that the patients present. A full thickness flap will be released to have a correct access of the defects. The sterile blocks have to fit perfectly on the defect and fixed by screws. Covered with resorbable membranes fixed with pines and suture. 4 months later, 2nd CBCTwill be performed. During the implant surgery, a bone trephine will be removed and sent into a Laboratory to make a histological study of the bone block for histomorphometry. After 3 months, second-stage surgery and healing caps will be placed if needed. Impressions will be taken 2 weeks after to perform the final crowns.
In this experiment, after non-traumatic tooth extraction, the blank group underwent natural healing, and the control group underwent alveolar ridge preservation using Bio-Oss Collagen and the experimental group using Sticky Bone, to verify the application of Bio-Oss Collagen and Sticky Bone in alveolar ridge preservation
Many dentists, clinicians and researchers have conducted numerous trials, and put several materials and procedures under the test, in an attempt to preserve vertical and/or horizontal extraction sockets dimensions. The clinical consequences of post-extraction remodeling may affect the outcome of the ensuing therapies aimed at restoring the lost dentition, either by limiting the bone availability for ideal implant placement or by compromising the aesthetic result of the prosthetic restorations. In an attempt for ridge/socket preservation of a freshly extracted tooth socket/bed, this study aims to assess and compare between using autogenous tooth graft added with Hyaluronic acid, and the usage of the standardized autogenous tooth graft alone, regarding the potency, preservative feature, and quality of bone healing, density, and deposition. For a better restorative outcome using a delayed implant placement later on in the edentulous area.
Following tooth extraction, volumetric changes in the soft and hard tissues of the extraction site are expected to occur with considerable resorption of the alveolar bone in both the vertical and the horizontal dimensions. These changes may complicate surgical implant placement and may also compromise the outcome of the prosthetic reconstruction. Various treatment approaches have been introduced aiming to preserve the dimensions of the alveolar ridge at the extraction site and facilitate optimal implant placement. This prospective randomized controlled trial aims to determine the efficacy of alveolar ridge preservation utilizing two different socket seal approaches compared to spontaneous healing to stabilize the blood clot within the postextraction socket. Thirty-six subjects will be randomly allocated into one of the three treatment groups. Group-A: Extraction of the tooth and suturing of the extraction socket with resorbable suture PGA 5/0. Group-B: Extraction of the tooth and placement of a Free Gingival Graft stabilized with resorbable suture PGA 5/0. Group-C: Extraction of the tooth and placement of the Polylactic-Glycolic Acid membrane stabilized with resorbable suture PGA 5/0. After the initial examination for screening, subjects will be assessed at baseline-extraction day- and after 1, 2, and 6 weeks, and 3 months. The changes of the alveolar crest will be determined in height and width, in addition to volumetric changes in the soft tissues, and the width of keratinized tissues. The wound healing process will be visually assessed.
The aim of this randomized prospective clinical trial was to evaluate the outcome of bone block harvesting from the retromolar region using the Conventional and Piezosurgery Method. The study was planned on 19 patients (13F,6M) on 31 donor sites. In patients with bilateral bone harvesting, the donor site and the surgical method to be used were determined by the randomization protocol, while in patients with bone harvesting from a single site, the donor site was determined by considering parameters such as proximity to the operation site and distance to the inferior alveolar nerve. Clinical parameters such as operation time, pain, swelling, trismus, nerve damage were evaluated.
