Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 1. It's expected to find absence of differences in the percentage of bone regenerated level (vital mineralized tissue - VMT), verified by histomorphometric analysis, using a comparative statistical analysis, for both inlay and inlay augmentations;Discovered outcome 1. It was verified a lower percentage (statistically significant) of newly formed bone (vital mineralized tissue - VMT), for onlay augmentations, in the test group 2 (TG2), in comparison with control (CG) and test 1 (TG1) groups, by using the histomorphometric analysis. For inlay augmentations, no difference was observed between groups | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 2. It is expected to verify absence of statistical differences in bone volume between groups, measured by cone beam computed tomography, performed before and 6 months after grafting;Discovered outcome 2. It was verified absence of bone volume differences between groups, measured by cone beam computed tomography, performed before and 6 months after grafting | — |
