Effect of Collagen Membrane on Ridge Preservation

6 de maio de 2026 atualizado por: Debora Dias

Effect of Collagen Membrane on Ridge Preservation for Delayed Implant Placement in Sites With Absent Buccal Bone Wall: A Randomized Controlled Trial

This study will evaluate whether adding a resorbable collagen membrane to an anorganic bone-collagen composite (ABCC) graft improves ridge preservation after tooth extraction. Ridge preservation is a procedure used to maintain the shape and volume of the jawbone following tooth removal, which is important for future dental implant placement.

Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either ABCC alone or ABCC combined with a collagen membrane. Healing outcomes will be assessed after approximately 4 months using three-dimensional cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans.

The primary outcome is the change in horizontal ridge dimension (width). Secondary outcomes include vertical and contour changes in ridge dimensions, changes in soft tissue contour assessed with digital scans, postoperative healing and complications (such as wound dehiscence, swelling, or infection), and patient-reported outcomes, including pain and satisfaction. In a subset of participants, bone healing will also be evaluated using laboratory and imaging analyses of bone samples obtained at the time of implant placement. The study will additionally assess whether the treatment allows implant placement in the ideal position without the need for further bone grafting.

Visão geral do estudo

Descrição detalhada

This study is a clinical trial that evaluates two different approaches to preserve the jawbone after tooth extraction in areas where part of the bone is already missing. Preserving the bone is important to support future dental implants.

Participants will be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) to receive one of two treatments: a bone graft material alone, or the same bone graft combined with a protective collagen membrane placed over it.

Tooth extraction and follow-up care will be performed in the same manner for all participants. After approximately 4 months of healing, participants will return for dental implant placement.

During the healing period and at the time of implant placement, the research team will evaluate how well the bone and gums have healed. This will include three-dimensional CBCT scans, digital intraoral scans, and clinical measurements. In some participants, a small sample of bone will be collected at the time of implant placement to study bone healing.

The study will compare how effectively each treatment maintains the shape and volume of the jawbone, the quality of soft tissue healing, the risk of complications, patient-reported outcomes (PROs), including comfort and satisfaction, and whether additional procedures are required prior to implant placement.

Armas e Intervenções

Grupo de Participantes / Braço
Intervenção / Tratamento
Comparador Ativo: Control group (bone graft only)
Control group (bone graft only): The socket will be grafted with ABCC alone. The socket entrance will be covered with a collagen sponge, which will be secured with passive cross-mattress polytetrafluoroethylene sutures (PTFE) without attempting primary closure.
Tooth extraction will be performed by a calibrated periodontist using a minimally invasive, flapless, atraumatic technique with periotomes and elevators to preserve socket architecture. Granulation tissue will be carefully removed without flap elevation.
The extraction socket will be grafted with ABCC (SigmaGraft®).
Experimental: Test group (bone graft + collagen membrane)
Test group (bone graft + collagen membrane): A buccal pouch will be created on the buccal aspect, between the bone and the buccal flap, using tunneling instruments to accommodate the resorbable collagen membrane (InterCollagen® Guide, SigmaGraft). The socket will then be grafted with ABCC. The socket entrance will be covered with a collagen sponge, which will be secured with passive cross-mattress PTFE sutures without attempting primary closure.

A buccal pouch will be created on the buccal aspect, between the bone and the buccal flap, using tunneling instruments to accommodate a resorbable collagen membrane (InterCollagen® Guide; SigmaGraft®). The membrane will be positioned in the buccal tunnel to replace the missing buccal bone wall and provide graft containment.
