Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of a natural and synthetic bone substitute in preserving the alveolar ridge (bone) of a single- rooted tooth after an extraction. The main question it aims to answer: Is there a difference between natural (Bio-Oss®) and synthetic (Bonalive®) bone substitutes in preserving the alveolar ridge dimensions based on changes in the width of the alveolar ridge (expressed in millimetres) from augmentation (baseline) to 24-week follow-up (post augmentation)? Participants will have a tooth extraction and a bone substitute will be inserted into their socket immediately after. Participants will be divided into two equal groups and those in group A will receive Bio-Oss® while those in group B will receive Bonalive®. In both groups measurements of the alveolar bone will be taken when the bone substitute is inserted and 24 weeks after the insertion of the bone substitute. These measurements will be used to compare the effectiveness of Bio-Oss® and Bonalive in preserving the alveolar bone of a tooth after an extraction.
This study will compare peri implant tissue stability following connective tissue graft harvested fromLateral Palate or the Tuberosity Area. As far as we know, it remains controversial whether peri-implant soft tissue stability could be achieved after soft tissue augmentation with the connective tissue graft from the tuberosity or the lateral palate. Soft tissue stability evaluated by intra oral scanner will be described as primary outcome.
aim Evaluation of the amount of bone gain following Ridge augmentation using tunneling technique in atrophic posterior mandibular ridges using anorganic bovine bone derived mineral mixed with particulated autogenous bone chips with collagen membrane
Narrow alveolar ridges with a thickness equal or less than 5 mm requires bone augmentation procedures before or at the time of implant placement. (Anitua, Begoña, and Orive 2013) Several surgical techniques have been utilized for the reconstruction of deficient alveolar ridges such as block onlay graft augmentation, guided bone regeneration, distraction osteogenesis , ridge splitting and/or ridge expansion(McAllister and Haghighat 2007). A new bone drilling technique named Osseodensification facilitates horizontal ridge expansion. Studies are needed to validate the effectiveness of osseodensification as a lateral ridge augmentation procedure that aims at increasing the thickness of atrophic ridges, thus maintaining ridge integrity and allowing for implant placement with enhanced stability. The null hypothesis Proposes no difference in the bone width gain following the osseodensification drilling system compared to the ridge splitting technique with simultaneously placed implants in narrow alveolar ridges.
