Study Arms (2)
Osseodensification technique group
EXPERIMENTAL10 patients will be randomly assigned to the osseodensification group so the implant osteotomy will be prepared using densah burs
Ridge expansion screw group
ACTIVE COMPARATOR10 patients will be randomly assigned to the ridge expansion screw group so the implant osteotomy will be prepared using ridge expansion screws
Interventions
using Densah burs to prepare implant osteotomy
using Ridge expansion screws to prepare implant osteotomy
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Single tooth missing in the maxillary region with D3 (350-850 HU) and D4 (150-350 HU) bone (Sultana et al., 2020).
- A minimum of 4 mm residual buccolingual bone width at site of implant placement (Koutouzis et al., 2019).
- The recipient site of the implant should be free from any pathological conditions.
- No diagnosed bone disease or medication known to affect bone metabolism.
- Patients who are cooperative, motivated and hygiene conscious.
- Patients having adequate inter-occlusal space of 8-10 mm (Fernández et al., 2017)
You may not qualify if:
- Systemic conditions/diseases that contraindicate surgery (Jarikian et al., 2021).
- Patients who have any habits that might jeopardize the osseointegration process, such as current smokers (Vollmer et al., 2020).
- Patients with parafunctional habits that produce overload on implant, such as bruxism and clenching (Sultana et al., 2020).
- Alcohol or drug abuse (Ibrahim et al., 2020).
- Pregnant and lactating women.
