Registration Number
NCT06251960
Lead Sponsor
Mansoura University
Brief Summary

Thirty patients will be selected from outpatient clinic of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University seeking for extraction of non-restorable mandibular posterior teeth For the 1st group: the socket will be grafted with completely demineralized dentin graft after 3 days of extraction, followed by delayed implant placement after 4 months.

For the 2nd group: the socket will be grafted with partially demineralized dentin graft in in the same day of extraction, followed by delayed implant placement after 4 months.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Bone density:12 months

Bone density will be evaluated using Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) that will be made immediately after socket preservation, at 4 months after preservation (just before implant placement), and after 12 months from implant loading.

Histomorphometric analysis4 months

Microscopic images of the surgical sites will be taken by randomly selecting four areas of the center portion of the defect at 100× magnification. Then, using 16 images of each group, the ratio of newly formed bone to the entire defect area in the slide images will be calculated in trichrome and osteocalcin-stained images using the Intel® Core I7® based computer using VideoTest Morphology® software (Russia) with a specific built-in routine for % area, measurement.

Histomorphometric evaluation:4 monhs

After 4 months of socket preservation and just before implant placement, a trephine bur will be used to collect a core of bone from the preserved socket. Bone will be examined histologically to evaluate the quality and quantity of the formed bone.

Briefly, the specimens were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde in 0.1M PBS (pH 7.4) and decalcified in 0.5M EDTA (pH 7.8). After decalcification, each specimen will be processed and embedded in paraffin, and transverse serial sections of 5 μm thickness will be prepared. The sections will be stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H\&E), Masson's Trichrome (MT) (Cat # HT15, Sigma Aldrich) and immunohistochemical staining with osteocalcin antibody polyclonal osteocalcin (OCN);diagnostic biosystems), histological examination will be carried out using an Olympus BX-51 optical microscope (Olympus Co., Tokyo, Japan).
