View clinical trials related to Autogenous Tooth Bone Graft.
Filter by:Recently, autogenous tooth graft (ATG) made from compromised teeth was applied in bone defects and resulted in a good clinical efficacy.(6) Moreover, it is more accepted by patients to use extracted teeth as a bone graft material, especially in the case of immediate implant placement. Simvastatin (SMV), known as a 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor, is widely used to decrease serum cholesterol because of its safe and effective treatment. Apart from cholesterol-lowering effects, SMV is also found to promote osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs), suppress osteoclastic differentiation in bone tissue and promotes osseointegration around implants in animal studies. SMV is reported to enhance autophagy and alleviates the ROS of BMSCs in the osseointegration of implants. The present study will be carried out to evaluate the effect of SMV combined with ATG on bone formation around immediately placed dental implants.
Immediate implant placement into fresh extraction sockets is gaining popularity because of fewer clinical procedures and maintenance of bone architecture compared to conventional methods, thus reducing the treatment time and increasing patient satisfaction. In addition, the survival rate of the immediate implantation is comparable to that of the healed implantation sites. Recently, ATBG made from compromised teeth was applied in bone defects and resulted in a good clinical efficacy. Moreover, it is more accepted by patients to use extracted teeth as a bone graft material, especially in the case of immediate implant placement. In 2020, Kizildağ and coworkers studied the outcome of PRF as an adjunct with ATBG on bone healing in rabbit peri-implant osseous defects. They reported that combination of ATBG with PRF contributed to significantly higher new bone formation and better bone/implant contact in rabbits with peri-implant bone defects. The main hypothesis behind this study is that using L-PRF with ATBG following immediate implant placement could promote stabilization of graft particles and enhance new bone formation with a shorter time. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of ATBG on bone formation with or without L-PRF around immediately placed dental implants in periodontally compromised teeth.
Alveolar bone resorption following tooth extraction is unavoidable. Graft placement following extraction is recommended when considering restorative procedures afterwards. The extracted tooth was considered a clinical waste. However, it is now seen as a convenient and available source for graft material. Different protocols are applied to process the extracted tooth for obtaining the graft material and investigations are needed to assess the protocol with the best outcome.
