Study Overview

Brief Summary

Comparative study between custom-made polyether ether ketone and titanium mesh for augmentation of atrophic posterior mandible.

Detailed Description

Designing and manufacturing

  1. The CBCT images of the patient will be used to build a digital model using a 3D planning software (Mimics innovation suite). Based on this model, a machine will be used to mill a pressed and pre-sintered body of PEEK to the desired macroscopic shape.

  2. The size of the machined sheet is enlarged in order to compensate for the sintering shrinkage performed at 1450 C.

  3. After manufacturing, the sheet will be cleaned in an ultrasonic bath of 70% alcohol for 15 min, followed by a brief heating to 1200 C.

  4. It will be again cleaned in an ultrasonic bath for 3x15 min using 90% alcohol.

Arms & Interventions

Custom Made Poly Ether Ether Ketone Mesh

Experimental

Applying Poly Ether Ether Ketone mesh with mix of autogenous bone graft and bone substitute in posterior atrophic mandible for augmentation

Intervention: under local anasthesia,Ridge Augmention of posterior atrophic mandible by using mix of autogenous bone graft and bone substitutes is used under PEEK mesh (Procedure)

Conventional Titanium mesh

Active Comparator

Applying Titanium mesh with mix of autogenous bone graft and bone substitute in posterior atrophic mandible for augmentation

Intervention: under local anasthesia,Ridge Augmention of posterior atrophic mandible by using mix of autogenous bone graft and bone substitutes is used under PEEK mesh (Procedure)

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Vertical amount of bone increased (length in millimeters). horizontal amount f bone increased after augmentation (width in millimeters).

Time Frame: 6 months

Length (Vertical Augmentation) Width (horizontal augmentation) gained after augmentation of atrophic mandible in millimeters using cone beam computed tomography (measuring tool) measurment tools : with the aid of cone beam computed tomography

Secondary Outcomes

  • Rate of Soft Tissue Dehiscence(6 months)
