Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial was to compare three ways of helping the jawbone heal after removal of a tooth. The jawbone that supports a tooth is called the alveolar ridge. This bone can become narrower after a tooth is removed. Participants were randomly assigned to one of three groups. One group received no bone graft material. One group received mineralized dentin graft made from the participant's extracted tooth. One group received beta-tricalcium phosphate, which is a synthetic bone graft material. Participants had cone-beam computed tomography, a three-dimensional dental X-ray, immediately after tooth removal and again after 6 months. During dental implant placement at 6 months, researchers collected a small bone sample to examine healing.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in Alveolar Bone Width From Baseline to 6 Months
Alveolar bone width was measured in millimeters using cone-beam computed tomography immediately after tooth extraction and at 6 months. Width was measured horizontally from the outer buccal cortical surface to the palatal cortical surface.
Baseline immediately after tooth extraction and 6 months
Study Arms (3)
Autogenous Mineralized Dentin Graft
EXPERIMENTALFollowing atraumatic tooth extraction, autogenous mineralized dentin graft prepared chairside from the participant's extracted tooth is placed in the extraction socket.
Beta-Tricalcium Phosphate
ACTIVE COMPARATORFollowing atraumatic tooth extraction, beta-tricalcium phosphate granules are placed in the extraction socket.
Control: No Bone Graft
ACTIVE COMPARATORFollowing atraumatic tooth extraction, no bone graft material is placed in the extraction socket.
Interventions
Following atraumatic tooth extraction, beta-tricalcium phosphate granules are placed in the extraction socket.
Following atraumatic tooth extraction, no bone graft material is placed in the extraction socket.
Following atraumatic tooth extraction, an autogenous mineralized dentin graft prepared chairside from the participant's extracted tooth is placed in the extraction socket.

- Masking Details
- Participants and the radiographic and histomorphometric outcome assessors were masked to group assignment. The statistician was also masked. The operating surgeon could not be masked and learned the group assignment after tooth extraction when the sealed allocation envelope was opened.
