Hyaluronic Acid Effect on Xenogenic Bone Healing

March 31, 2025 updated by: Saint-Joseph University

Hyaluronic Acid Effect on Xenogenic Bone Substitutes Healing During Ridge Preservations: A Radiological and Histomorphometric Study

The aim of this study is to test the hyaluronic acid hydrogel impact on the healing acceleration of xenogenic bone substitutes used in ridge preservation.

Following tooth extraction, bone particles are mixed with the hyaluronic acid gel and grafted in the tooth socket. at the implant placement phase, a cone beam computer assisted tomography file is recorded in order to compare it with the baseline and a biopsy to evaluate the histological consequences.

  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Radiological assessement
Two CBCTs were recorded and compared, one at the baseline and the other at 4 months post-op. The bone resorption was quantified and analyzed using ITK-SNAP software
Procedure: Ridge preservation: Tooth extration and immediat bone grafting in the socket
Following the tooth extraction, the socket is filled with a mixture of xenogenic bone and hyaluronic acid and sealed with an epithelio-connective arrested from the maxillary palate
Experimental: Histomorphometric analysis
During implant placement (4 months after the bone grafting), a bone biopsy is collected and stained with several colorants to analyze the biological bone healing
