Official title: Evaluation of Soft and Hard Tissue Dimensional Changes Following Immediate Implant Placement in Molar Extraction Sockets With or Without Bone Graft: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Statement of problem: The majority of studies on immediate implant placement are related to the maxillary esthetic zone. Literature concerning Immediate implant placement in the posterior region is scarce. Furthermore, there is paucity of evidence on alveolar bone dimensional changes following immediate implant placement in fresh extraction sockets of posterior teeth. Adding to that, negligible evidence is known about the soft tissue alterations which take place during modeling and remodeling phases of socket healing process; regarding the molar sites. Nevertheless, Immediate installation into a molar socket raises an extra challenge for the clinicians, because of the different anatomical features of the extraction sockets compared to that of the single-rooted teeth in the anterior zone. In addition to, implant positioning difficulties; due to the amount of the residual inter-radicular bone after extraction. Aim of the study: To assess the bucco-lingual ridge collapse after immediate implant placement in lower 1st molar sites either with customized healing abutment only; or with xenogeneic bone graft and customized healing abutment. Materials and methods: The current study will include 28 non-restorable lower 1st molar teeth indicated for extraction in the posterior area. Patients will randomly be assigned into two equal groups: the test group; Immediate implant placement + customized healing abutment group and the control group; Immediate implant placement +bone graft+ customized healing abutment group. The presented trial will investigate the following outcomes: bucco-lingual ridge collapse as the primary outcome, together with mid-facial recession, total volume gain/loss, buccal soft tissue contour, bucco-lingual bone width, and vertical bone changes as the secondary outcomes after 12 months

Clinical Trial Description

After administration of local anesthesia, flapless atraumatic extraction will be performed using peristomes inserted along the root surface, apical pressure and rocking motion will be applied circumferentially to cut the periodontal ligaments. After initial luxation using Harpoon luxators, bayonet forceps will be used to deliver the tooth out of the socket. Often separation of the mesial and distal roots will be employed, to facilitate tooth delivery without impinging the soft and hard tissue architecture. Socket debridement will be done using socket curette and saline irrigation, to make sure the socket is thoroughly clean with no remnants of any periapical pathosis. Immediate implant placement + customized healing abutment (Test group): After atraumatic extraction, flapless immediate implant of a suitable size will be placed using sequential drills of the Straumann implant system for osteotomy preparation. According to the prosthetically driven planned position, implant will be placed. Primary stability of the implant will be measured by rotational insertion torque, to be more than or equal 30 Ncm. All patients will receive an immediate anatomical customized healing abutment fabricated by adding flowable composite to the temporary cylindrical abutment mimicking the shape of the socket at the marginal gingiva, then it will be screwed to the implant. Immediate implant placement + xenogeneic bone graft material + customized healing abutment (Control) After atraumatic extraction, immediate implant will be placed as mentioned-above, then particulate xenogeneic bone graft will be packed into the gap between the implant and the buccal plate mesially and distally. bone grafting will be up to the level of the buccal bone crest, followed by screwing the customized healing abutment. Objectives: - To compare Bucco-lingual ridge dimension between the two groups at baseline and one-year postoperative. - To compare the volumetric changes in the labial soft tissue contour between the two groups assessed in mm and mm3. - To assess and compare the Bucco-palatal bone width, and vertical bone changes in mm using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) preoperative and at 12 Months. - To evaluate mid facial gingival recession assessed in mm by the volumetric analysis. - To assess peri-implant soft tissue parameters by plaque and bleeding indices. - To assess any surgical or prosthetic complications. - To assess Implant Failure and Implant Survival Rate ;
