Ridge Preservation Comparing the Healing With or Without a Barrier Membrane
- Conditions
- Jaw, Edentulous, Partially
- Interventions
- Procedure: Ridge preservation
- Registration Number
- NCT02798887
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Louisville
- Brief Summary
Ridge Preservation Comparing the Clinical and Histologic Healing of Membrane vs. no Membrane Approach to Grafting.
- Detailed Description
Thirty patients will be treated using the principles of bone grafting for ridge preservation. Fifteen test patients will receive a flap technique with an intrasocket cancellous cortical particulate allograft plus a facial overlay graft using a bovine xenograft without a membrane where only the exposed intrasocket allograft will be covered with a piece of Alloderm GBR. The positive control group of fifteen patients will receive a flap technique with an intrasocket cancellous cortical particulate allograft plus a facial overlay graft using a bovine xenograft plus Alloderm GBR membrane. Approximately, four months post-surgery, a trephine core will be taken from the grafted site immediately prior to implant placement and submitted for histologic processing.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in post-extraction site to 4 month change in crestal osseous width 4 months Changes in post-extraction to 4 month change in ridge measurements at the mid defect alveolar crest and 5 mm apical taken with a caliper.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in Soft tissue thickness 4 months Soft tissue thickness measurements taken with a #40 endodontic reamer.
Percent osseous tissue 4 months A trephine core will be harvested at 4 months. Following histologic processing the osseous core will be classified into percent vital bone, nonvital bone and trabecular space.
