Eggshell-Derived Hydroxyapatite With Platelet-Rich Fibrin for Bone Regeneration After Jaw Cyst Removal
Evaluation of Eggshell-Derived Hydroxyapatite Enhanced With Platelet-Rich Fibrin for Alveolar Bone Regeneration Following Cyst Enucleation
This clinical study aims to evaluate bone healing after the surgical removal of jaw cysts using a bone graft material made from chicken eggshells, with or without platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), a substance prepared from the patient's own blood.
Removal of a jaw cyst can leave an empty space in the surrounding bone. Although this space may heal naturally, bone regeneration can take several months. Hydroxyapatite is a bone-like mineral that may support new bone formation. Combining it with PRF may further improve healing.
This prospective, controlled clinical study is being conducted in Sana'a, Yemen. Participants undergo surgical removal of jaw cysts and receive one of the treatment approaches included in the study. The researchers compare bone healing between treatment groups using clinical examinations and dental imaging, including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).
Participants are followed for up to six months after surgery. The study evaluates bone regeneration, postoperative pain, wound healing, and possible complications.
The researchers aim to determine whether eggshell-derived hydroxyapatite combined with PRF improves bone regeneration compared with the other treatments being investigated.

Descripción detallada
This prospective, controlled, non-randomized interventional clinical study evaluates the clinical and radiographic outcomes of eggshell-derived hydroxyapatite (HA) enhanced with autologous platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) for alveolar bone regeneration following the enucleation of odontogenic jaw cysts.
The study is conducted in Sana'a, Yemen, among adult patients requiring surgical enucleation of jaw cysts associated with residual bone defects.
The investigational bone graft material is synthesized from processed chicken eggshells using a chemical preparation method involving phosphoric acid. The resulting calcium phosphate material undergoes physicochemical characterization and is prepared for clinical application under controlled aseptic conditions.
The clinical study includes three treatment groups. Participants are assigned using a repeating A-B-C allocation sequence rather than random assignment. The study evaluates eggshell-derived HA combined with autologous PRF against the other treatment approaches defined in the clinical protocol.
When PRF is used, venous blood is collected from the participant and centrifuged without anticoagulants to obtain a fibrin-rich preparation. The PRF is combined with the prepared HA material and applied to the residual bone defect after cyst enucleation.
Participants undergo standardized surgical management and postoperative clinical assessment. Clinical evaluations include wound healing, postoperative pain, swelling, infection, wound dehiscence, and other treatment-related complications.
Radiographic assessments include panoramic radiography and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Bone regeneration is evaluated through changes in residual defect dimensions and radiographic healing during postoperative follow-up, including assessments at three and six months.
The primary objective is to compare radiographic bone regeneration following cyst enucleation among the treatment groups. Secondary objectives include evaluating soft tissue healing, postoperative discomfort, and treatment-related complications.
The study hypothesis is that eggshell-derived HA combined with autologous PRF may provide improved bone regeneration compared with the other treatment approaches. The investigation is intended to generate clinical evidence regarding the regenerative performance and safety of the locally prepared bone graft material.

Intervención / Tratamiento |
|---|---|
|
Experimental: Group A: Eggshell-Derived HA + PRF
|
Following surgical enucleation of the odontogenic jaw cyst, the residual bone defect is filled with locally prepared eggshell-derived hydroxyapatite combined with autologous platelet-rich fibrin (PRF). The PRF is obtained from the patient's venous blood by centrifugation without anticoagulants. The combined graft is placed into the bone cavity before surgical wound closure. |
|
Comparador activo: Group B: Eggshell-Derived HA Alone
|
Following surgical enucleation of the odontogenic jaw cyst, the residual bone defect is filled with eggshell-derived hydroxyapatite without platelet-rich fibrin. The graft is placed directly into the bone cavity before surgical wound closure. |
|
Sin intervención: Group C: Spontaneous Bone Healing

Periodo de tiempo |
|---|---|---|
|
Change in Alveolar Bone Defect Dimensions Following Cyst Enucleation
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and 3 and 6 months after surgery
|
Radiographic bone regeneration is assessed by measuring changes in the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the residual bone defect in millimeters using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Measurements obtained at baseline are compared with those at 3 and 6 months after surgery to evaluate bone defect reduction among the treatment groups. |
Baseline and 3 and 6 months after surgery

|
Change in Radiographic Density Within the Healing Bone Defect
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and 3 and 6 months after surgery
|
Changes in radiographic density within the bone defect are evaluated using CBCT image gray values obtained from a defined region of interest. Measurements are compared between baseline and follow-up examinations at 3 and 6 months, using a consistent imaging and measurement protocol. Gray values are reported as relative radiographic measurements rather than calibrated Hounsfield units. |
