Registration Number
NCT03063775
Lead Sponsor
Medical University of Graz
Brief Summary

It is planned to evaluate if a porcine collagen matrix (Mucograft Seal) is offering comparable results to free gingival grafts (FGG) in post-extraction tissue preservation. If so, this would provide a substantial benefit to the patient as the second intervention on the palate and the subsequent morbidity of the donor site is omitted.

Detailed Description

In a proof of concept 5 groups are compared in preserving soft- and hard tissue after tooth extraction in the esthetic zone:

1. Mucograft® Seal + Bio-Oss®

2. Free Gingival Graft (FGG) + Bio-Oss®

3. Free Gingival Graft + Gelatine sponge (Spongostan®)

4. Spongostan®+ Mucograft® Seal

5. Spongostan®

Volumetric changes of hard and soft tissues are recorded , 2/4/8 weeks and 3/6/12 months after extraction.
