Clinical Trial Summary

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.
