Horizontal Ridge Augmentation in Maxillary Esthetic Zone Using Bovine Bone Graft Versus Extended Sticky Bone With Simultaneous Implant Placement

Experimentální: Eight dental implants were inserted simultaneously with horizontal ridge augmentation using Medpark

For group I, Medpark bone graft was prepared by hydration with sterile saline, gentle mixing, and allowed to partially set before application to the defect site. For group II, extended sticky bone (ESB) was prepared by centrifugation of autologous blood followed by preparation of ALB-PRF and mixing with bone particulates (50:50 allograft: xenograft) to obtain the final graft materia

Postup: oral surgery

The oral cavity was prepared using 0.12% chlorhexidine mouth rinse for one minute. Local anesthesia was administered using articaine 4% with 1:100,000 epinephrine. A full-thickness mucoperiosteal flap was reflected using a crestal horizontal incision with vertical releasing incisions to expose the surgical site.

Osteotomy preparation was performed using a pilot drill to the planned depth at 800-850 rpm under copious sterile saline irrigation, followed by sequential drilling according to the manufacturer's protocol until the final implant size was achieved. The sterile implant was then inserted using a ratchet wrench. Implant stability was immediately assessed using resonance frequency analysis (Osstell device), and cover screws were subsequently placed.

Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) Values Assessed by Resonance Frequency Analysis

Implant stability was assessed using resonance frequency analysis (RFA) with the Osstell device and expressed as Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) values. ISQ scores range from 1 to 100, with higher scores indicating greater implant stability and osseointegration.

High stability: ISQ > 70 Medium stability: ISQ 60-69 Low stability: ISQ < 60

Measurements were recorded immediately after implant placement and at the 6-month follow-up.
