Brief Summary

Bone healing after tooth extraction may be affected by defects in the buccal wall of the alveolus, such as fenestrations and dehiscences. Therefore, it is advisable to perform a surgical procedure such as guided bone regeneration after tooth extractions. Different biomaterials are used for this purpose. The aim of this study is to investigate the qualitative and quantitative histological changes in human biopsies taken after 6 months of healing of extraction sockets with buccal wall defects. For this purpose, the defects of 36 patients (18 per group) will be augmented with injectable biphasic calcium phosphate (I-BCP) or bovine xenograft (BX) after extraction. After six months of healing, bone biopsies will be taken and processed to the qualitative and quantitative histological analysis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of the newly formed bone, soft tissue and residual biomaterial in bone biopsies harvested 6 months after bone augmentation

    Histomorphometric processing of the specimens will be performed using the free ImageJ software (https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/download.html). The surface of the new bone, the surface of the biomaterial, and the surface of the soft tissue will be marked on the specimens. Marked surfaces of the specimen will be then measured, and the following will be calculated from the data obtained: percentage of new bone formed, percentage of biomaterial remaining, and percentage of soft tissue

    Up to 8 months

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Qualitative histological assessment

    Up to 8 months

Study Arms (2)

Injectable biphasic calcium phosphate (maxresorb inject, botiss GmbH)

EXPERIMENTAL

This biomaterial is an alloplastic bone substitute material in the form of a paste that is placed into the defect with a plastic syringe. The material consists of an aqueous gel containing granules of biphasic calcium phosphate in the composition of 60% HA and 40% β-TCP (particle size between 15-50 nm).

Procedure: Bone augmentation with I-BCP

Bovine xenograft (cerabone, botiss GmbH)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The material is completely anorganic and consists of 100% HA. For this study, the material will be used in granular form (the size of the granules is between 0.5 and 1 mm), mixed with physiological solution prior to placement into the defect.

Procedure: Bone augmentation with BX

Interventions

The extraction socket will be filled after tooth extraction with I-BCP, in order to achieve bone regeneration and prevent volume loss after tooth extraction.
