Brief summary
Effect of Topical Application of Hyaluronic Acid on Stability of Immediate Loading Dental Implant in Posterior Maxilla
Detailed description
Patients were randomly divided into two groups: Group I (Control group): Ten implants were placed in posterior maxilla and immediately loaded. Group II (Study group): Ten implants were coated with HA before placement in posterior maxilla and immediately loaded.
Interventions
immediate placement of dental implant after topical application of hyaluronic acid on implant surface
immediate placement of dental implant without application of hyaluronic acid on implant surface

Intervention model description
Twenty implants were inserted in patients seeking for replacement of missed single or multiple posterior maxillary teeth. Patients were divided randomly into two groups. In the control group, ten implants were placed and immediately loaded. While in the study group, ten implants were coated with hyaluronic acid (HA) immediately before placement and immediately loaded. All patients were clinically evaluated at implant placement time, one, three and six months after loading regarding implant stability. Peri-implant pocket depth and modified sulcus bleeding index were evaluated clinically at six months in all patients. Bone density was evaluated radiographically after three months. All clinical and radiographic data were subjected to statistical analysis.
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Highly motivated patients with good oral hygiene. * Age 18 years or older. * Adequate alveolar bone volume at the implant site, at least 6mm in width and 15 mm in height. * Free from any parafunctional habits
Exclusion criteria
* Patients suffering from any systemic or local disease that contraindicate implant placement or surgery. * Pregnancy. * Smokers.
