Ovate Pontic Versus Essix Provisional After Tooth Extraction and Alveolar Ridge Preservation (Pontic-Essix) (Pontic-Essix)

2026年7月31日 更新者:University of Bern

Socket Sealing With a Fixed Ovate Pontic Provisional Versus a Removable Provisional Following Tooth Extraction and Alveolar Ridge Preservation: A Randomized Controlled Trial

This randomized controlled trial compares two provisional socket-sealing concepts following single non-molar tooth extraction and alveolar ridge preservation: a fixed, tooth-supported, 3D-printed ovate pontic provisional restoration providing active soft tissue support (test) versus a removable Essix-type provisional restoration without intentional soft tissue contact combined with a porcine collagen matrix seal (control). Both groups receive alveolar ridge preservation using a deproteinized bovine bone mineral with 10% collagen. The primary endpoint is interproximal soft tissue height at 5 months, adjusted for baseline, assessed by digital superimposition of intraoral surface scans. Up to 40 participants will be enrolled at the University of Bern School of Dental Medicine.

研究概览

详细说明

Following tooth extraction, dimensional changes of the alveolar ridge and loss of interproximal soft tissue height may compromise esthetic and prosthetic outcomes. Alveolar ridge preservation attenuates hard tissue resorption but provides limited active support for the overlying soft tissues during healing. An ovate pontic provisional restoration may provide active soft tissue support and thereby help preserve interproximal soft tissue height. To date, no randomized controlled trial has compared a fixed ovate pontic provisional restoration with a removable non-contact Essix provisional restoration in the context of alveolar ridge preservation.

This is a single-center, open-label, confirmatory, randomized controlled trial with two parallel groups and 1:1 allocation. An adaptive design with an internal pilot phase (n=20) and blinded sample size re-estimation based on the residual variance of the primary endpoint is applied, up to a predefined maximum of 40 participants.

All participants undergo minimally traumatic, flapless single non-molar tooth extraction and alveolar ridge preservation with Bio-Oss Collagen. Test group: socket sealing by a fixed, 3D-printed ovate pontic provisional restoration providing active soft tissue support. Control group: socket sealing with Mucograft Seal plus a removable Essix-type provisional restoration positioned without intentional soft tissue contact.

Follow-up visits are performed at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, and 5 months. At baseline (T0) and at 5 months, intraoral surface scans, clinical photographs, cone-beam computed tomography, and patient-reported outcomes are collected. The between-group treatment effect on the primary endpoint is estimated using ANCOVA with the 5-month value as dependent variable, treatment group as fixed factor, and the baseline value as covariate; jaw is included as an additional between-subject factor.

武器和干预

参与者组/臂
干预/治疗
实验性的:Fixed ovate pontic provisional
Following minimally traumatic, flapless tooth extraction, the alveolar socket is grafted with Bio-Oss Collagen. Socket sealing is achieved by a fixed, 3D-printed provisional restoration incorporating an ovate pontic design that extends approximately 2 mm apical to the mucosal margin, providing active soft tissue support to maintain interproximal papilla height and facial soft tissue contour during healing. The provisional is retained by adhesive bonding or temporary cementation on the adjacent teeth. No additional collagen matrix or sutures are placed.
Deproteinized bovine bone mineral with 10% collagen (Geistlich Pharma AG, Wolhusen, Switzerland). Used for alveolar ridge preservation by socket grafting after tooth extraction. CE-marked and used within the approved indication.
其他名称:
  • Fixed ovate pontic provisional
  • Removable Essix provisional with collagen matrix seal
Patient-specific 3D-printed provisional restoration (PMMA or comparable clinically approved dental provisional material) incorporating an ovate pontic design. Retained by adhesive bonding or temporary cementation on the adjacent teeth. The convex, highly polished pontic extends approximately 2 mm apical to the mucosal margin and above the level of the bone graft, providing active soft tissue support.
有源比较器:Removable Essix provisional with collagen matrix seal
Following minimally traumatic, flapless tooth extraction, the alveolar socket is grafted with Bio-Oss Collagen. The socket is sealed with a porcine-derived collagen matrix (Mucograft Seal) secured with four to six single interrupted sutures, without primary closure. A removable Essix-type provisional restoration with an integrated artificial tooth is delivered; the pontic is positioned above the mucosal level without intentional soft tissue contact.
