Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Soft tissue healing

    This was done using Landry healing index. It evaluates the parameters of tissue colour, bleeding response to palpation, presence of granulation tissue, characteristics of the incision margins, and the presence of suppuration. The score ranges from 1 (Very poor) to 5 (Excellent).

    up to 4 weeks

  • Mid-buccal soft tissue thickness

    Measured from the gingival margin to implant platform using a periodontal probe.

    up to 8 weeks

  • Mid-crestal soft tissue height

    Measured using a periodontal probe passing through soft tissue in the intersection midpoint of both buccolingual and mesiodistal dimensions of the socket till cover screw.

    up to 8 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Post-operative pain level

    24 hours

Study Arms (2)

Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF)

EXPERIMENTAL
Biological: Platelet Rich Fibrin

Diode laser

EXPERIMENTAL
Device: Diode laser

Interventions

for the preparation of PRF, A well-trained professional nurse drew 10ml of patient blood from the antecubital vein and transferred it to a test tube without anticoagulant. The blood sample was immediately centrifuged for 10-12 minutes at 3000 rpm. L-PRF was ready to use after centrifugation. PRF membrane was put over the implant and slightly tucked under the soft tissue periphery, then held in place with a figure-of-8 suture by 0.5 proline suture

Also known as: PRF
Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF)

* A 980 nm diode laser device (BIOLASE) was applied in a circular motion to the blood formed at the socket orifice at a power of 1W for 1 minute with a continuous wave mode, the application was done without touching the pooling blood and with a non-activated tip of the fiber optic. * The laser application cycle was repeated 3-5 times to yield a stable fixed blood clot covering the dental implant with no oozing blood from its periphery.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 50 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Any non-restorable hopeless tooth: a badly decayed tooth that cannot be restored, tooth with failed endodontic treatment, and teeth with longitudinal fracture.
  • Post-extraction sockets type 1 with all bony walls intact; Type I extraction sockets according to Elian classification in 2007 have an intact labial plate of the bone and no soft tissue recession. Therefore, it does not require a mucoperiosteal flap elevation, only bone graft particles are packed into the socket after atraumatic extraction and socket debridement, then sealed with barrier membranes or soft tissue grafts.
  • No signs of active periodontal disease in the selected tooth.
  • Good oral hygiene

You may not qualify if:

  • The presence of any systemic disease could complicate bone or soft tissue healing after immediate implant placement.
  • The presence of Acute periapical infection.
  • The presence of any local factor that may interfere with extraction as tooth ankyloses
  • Subjects who had undergone therapeutical radiation. (187)
  • Patients who had been subjected to or who were under bisphosphonate therapy
