Trial summary

Alveolar ridge resorption after tooth extraction is a physiological process that continues throughout the patient's life due to the loss of the periodontal ligament and lack of mechanical stimulation. Alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) techniques aim to minimize dimensional changes in the ridge after tooth extraction. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Clinical and Histological Effects of the Adjunctive Use of Polynucleotide and Hyaluronic Acid-based Gel in Alveolar Preservation After Tooth Extraction: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Alveolar ridge resorption after tooth extraction is a physiological process that continues throughout the patient's life due to the loss of the periodontal ligament and lack of mechanical stimulation. Alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) techniques aim to minimize dimensional changes in the ridge after tooth extraction. These techniques involve grafting the socket to fill the bed and/or sealing it with a biomaterial. Currently, there is a polynucleotide and hyaluronic acid-based gel (Regenfast®) on the market that has proven useful in treating residual periodontal defects. Hyaluronic acid-based gels also appear to enhance the regenerative potential of critical bone defects in both in-vitro studies on rats and clinical studies. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the clinical and histological effects of polynucleotide and hyaluronic acid-based gel in alveolar preservation procedures.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Alveolar ridge preservation using DBBM + Regenfast + collagen matrixProcedure or surgery

    Post extraction sites be filled up to the level of the highest point of the alveolar bone crest using particulate DBBM xenograft (Bio-Oss, Geistlich Pharma AG, Wolhusen, Switzerland) mixed with polynucleotide and hyaluronic acid-based gel (Regenfast®). The alveolus will be sealed with a porcine collagen membrane (Mucograft Seal, Geistlich Pharma AG, Wolhusen, Switzerland) and secured with 4-6 simple interrupted sutures (Resolon 6-0, Resorba Medical GmbH, Nuremberg, Germany).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Histomorphometric results

    After 3 months of the ARP, A trephine with an internal diameter of 2.5 mm and a maximum length of 15 mm will be used to extract a bone core for histological analysis. Histological analyses will be performed on the entire sample area by calibrated and blinded examiners using open-source software (ImageJ, NIH). The areas of mineralized tissue and remaining xenograft material will be quantified based on their appearance and expressed as a percentage of the total area. The remaining area in the sample will be classified as non-mineralized tissue.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Visual evaluation of socket healing.

    Clinician will evaluate the healing of the socket based on a Healing index described by Avila-Ortiz, et al., 2018

    Measured: At 1 week and 12 weeks

  2. Implant insertion torque

    Implant insertion torque measured in N·cm

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Need for additional bone regeneration for implant placement

    Evaluation of the feasibility to place dental implant without needing additional bone regeneration

    Measured: 3 months

  4. Dimensional changes

    Changes in the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the alveolar ridge after the ARP

    Measured: Measurement at the day of the ARP and 3 months

  5. Postoperative pain

    Visual Analog scale.

    Measured: During the first 7 postoperative days after ARP.

  6. Analgesic medication consumption

    Record of analgesics and anti-inflammatory drugs used

    Measured: During the first 7 postoperative days after ARP.

  7. Oral health related quality of life

    Evaluation of the quality of life of the patient after an ARP procedure by means of the validated questionnaire OHIP-14

    Measured: At the day of the ARP and 7 days postoperative
