Post-Extraction Socket Healing, Ridge Preservation
Conditions
Keywords
ridge preservation, post-extraction healing, post-extraction resorption, dense polytetrafluoroethylene membrane, free gingival graft, platelet-rich plasma
Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if ridge preservation methods with dense polytetrafluoroethylene membranes, with d-PTFE membranes and platelet-rich plasma, and with free gingival grafts can reduce vertical resorption of the post-extraction socket walls. Researchers compared each experimental group to a control group (unassisted socket healing). Participants were randomly allocated to one of the four groups. Cone-beam computed tomography was performed after the procedure and 3 months post-operatively to evaluate the vertical socket wall resorption.
Interventions
Tooth extraction, deperiostation of the buccal and oral marginal gingiva, placement of d-PTFE membranes and suturing.
Tooth extraction, socket filling with PRP, deperiostation of the buccal and oral marginal gingiva, placement of d-PTFE membranes and suturing.
