Completed
Conditions
Mandible Cyst
Interventions

Other: Conventional enucleation only
Registration Number
NCT05748756

Brief Summary

Mandibular cystic defect healing is a complex process. Various methods have been developed to shorten the bone regeneration time and improve its quality. Autogenous grafting is the gold standard for filling cystic defects due to the osteogenesis property provided by the viable cells but is related to donor site morbidity. Allografts and Xenografts are used for the same purpose. However, the increased cost is their main disadvantage. Bone marrow aspirate concentrate is now used to enhance the healing and regeneration process in many areas of the body with no morbidity and low cost.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in pain scores1st day, 1 week, 4 weeks, 6 weeks

pain was assessed through a 10-point Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) the scores are categorizied as follows: (0-1= None, 2-4= Mild, 5-7= Moderate, 8-10= Severe)

Change in bone densityat baseline, 3 months, 6 months

An immediate postoperative CBCT was be obtained, followed by another one taken after 3 and 6 months postoperatively. The Region of Interest (ROI) feature was used to estimate the mean bone density in the immediate and 6 months scans. The mean bone density in the 6 months CBCT-scan was compared with the immediate postoperative and the preoperative scans and the mean difference between the scans was calculated.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
change in wound dehiscence1st day, 1 week, 4 weeks, 6 weeks

any signs of wound dehiscence were observed
