Periapical; Infection
Interventions
Procedure: Immediate dental implants
Registration Number
NCT05101941
Lead Sponsor
Hams Hamed Abdelrahman
Brief Summary

Compromised teeth with periapical pathologies are removed before dental implant placement and sockets are left to heal.

Some clinicians began to immediately place dental implants in fresh extraction sockets associated with chronic inflammatory periapical lesions and these studies revealed high success rates

Detailed Description

12 implants will be immediately placed in sockets associated with chronic periapical granuloma. Clinical (Wound healing, Pain, swelling, implant stability) and radiographic parameters (Peri-implant radiolucency) will be evaluated

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Implant stabilityimmediately, at 3 months and 6 months

It will be measured by implant stability meter (Osstellâ„¢)

Change in peri implant radiolucencyimmediately, and 6 months

Immediate post-operative and after 6 months CBCT will be requested in order to compare the dimension of the periapical lesion in millimeters using OnDemand system.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Early Wound Healing Indexat 2 weeks, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks

Using Early Wound Healing Index (EHI), it will be evaluated across weeks 2, 4 and 8.

(EHI; 1: complete flap closure-no fibrin line; 2: complete flap closure-fine fibrin line; 3: complete flap closure-fibrin clot; 4: incomplete flap closure-partial necrosis; 5: incomplete flap closure-complete necrosis).

Change in pain scorewithin a week

It will be recorded daily for the first week through a 10-point Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) from 0 to 10 (0-1= None, 2-4= Mild, 5-7= Moderate, 8-10= Severe).

Change in swelling statuswithin a week

It will be recorded daily for the first week through a 10-point scale with 4 parameters will be used.

none (no swelling), light (intraoral, localized to the treated area), moderate (extraoral swelling localized to the treated area), and severe (extraoral swelling extending beyond the treated area)
