Tooth Graft of Two Different Particle Sizes in Extraction Sockets

Not Applicable
Conditions
Socket Preservation
Interventions
Device: Dentin grinder
Device: Bone mill
Registration Number
NCT04377178
Lead Sponsor
SVS Institute of Dental Sciences
Brief Summary

The primary objective of the present study is to clinically and radiographically evaluate the efficacy of autogenous tooth graft obtained from bone mill and dental grinder to preserve alveolar ridge dimensions in extraction sockets.

Detailed Description

Accordingly, teeth will be used as a test material to allow for comparative tests after processing it in the automated milling system (AMS). The material will be moistened and then placed in toto into the extraction sockets to generate particles at settings 1 (500 RPM for 30s) or 2 (900 RPM for 30s) to generate MS and SS respectively ((SS group; 0.5-0.8 mm) and medium size (MS group; 1.0-1.2 mm)).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Bone densityBaseline to 6months

Radiographs will be taken with digitalized RVG machine (DX 3000, DEXCOWN portable dental X-ray system) at 60Kvp/2Ma with inactive interface. RVG images taken at baseline and 6 months will be utilized to evaluate bone mineral density through Hounsfield units (HU).

Bone fillBaseline to 6months

The radiograph obtained at 3 and 6 months will be subtracted from the radiograph taken at the baseline by using commercially available image processing software (Adobe Photoshop® 6.0, Adobe Systems, San Jose, USA). After digital subtraction, the digitized and excluded residual bone height will be transferred to open source software for area calculation (ImageJ®, Research Services Branch, NIH, Bethesda, Maryland, USA) for area calculation. The area of the layer will be calculated (in mm2) by initially enclosing the entire area with the rectangular selection tool and then by using Analyze\>Analyze Particles tool.
