Not yet recruiting

• Conditions: Tooth Extraction; Dental Implants; Bone Regeneration

• Registration Number: NCT06172114
• Lead Sponsor: Mohammed Bin Rashid University of Medicine and Health Sciences

Brief Summary

The study is prospective randomized clinical trial that aims to evaluate the adjunctive use of L-PRF in promoting the desired vascularization and bone fill in small and large defects following tooth extraction and report on the long-term implant and patient outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Implant survival / success rate will be assessed clinically after one year of implant restoration and annually up to three years.	2 years
Patient postoperative experience will be assessed using visual analogue scale during the first week following tooth extraction and ridge preservation.	2 years	Reporting a score will be done using the pain visual analogue scale. Minimum value is 0 which is no pain and maximum value is 10 which is the worst pain ever experienced.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Need for additional bone augmentation will only be assessed at the time of implant placement by recording the use of bone graft (if required) in the clinical notes.	2 years
Changes in peri-implant marginal bone level will be assessed at implant placement (baseline) and after one year of implant restoration and annually up to two years using standardized peri-apical radiograph.	2 years
Soft tissue levels (midbuccal marginal tissue level changes, interproximal papilla level changes and changes in width of keratinised tissue) will be assessed at implant placement (baseline), at 1 year and at 2 years	2 years
Changes in width and height of alveolar ridge will be assessed at the time of tooth extraction and ridge preservation, six months (prior to implant placement) and annually up to two years using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).	2 years
Biological complications (i.e. peri-implant diseases) will be assessed clinically using periodontal probe after one year of implant restoration and annually up to two years.	2 years
