January 8, 2022 updated by: JAVIER MONTERO, University of Salamanca

Histological Outcome of the Use of Different Biomaterials for Fresh Socket. A Split Mouth Design

Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyze the quality of bone regeneration in fresh sockets using four different materials and at different times points.

Materials and Methods: A split-mouth clinical trial was designed to evaluate the histological and histomorphometrical characteristics of fresh sockets from 30 patients. One socket per patient will healed spontaneously (control) and, at least, one fresh socket, will be grafted with platelet-rich growth factor (PRGF), PRGF+autologous bone, autologous bone or PRGF+demineralized freeze dried bone allograft (DFDBA). The day of the implant placement, biopsies will be taken at different time points divided into three assessment groups: short duration (2-4 months), intermediate duration (5-6 months) and long duration (7-12 months). The histologic findings will be assessed to quantify the trabeculae pattern, the degree of mineralization and the quality of bone regeneration.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
No Intervention: Control Group
