Abstract
reabsorption of the alveolar ridge with quantitative and qualitative changes of its profile that tends to decrease and results in the disappearance of bundle bone. To modify bone remodelling after extraction, especially in absence of the vestibular bone wall, various ridge preservation techniques have been proposed. The objective of this study was to evaluate and to compare changes of hard and soft tissues in post-extraction sockets and histologically quantify the alveolar ridge preservation after tooth extraction using a new surgical protocol. Methods: Ten subjects who required tooth extraction and implant placement in an aesthetic site were enrolled in this study. All subjects presented, at the end of the tooth extraction, different level of defects in the buccal bone. The buccal wall was subsequently remodelled to create a standardized defect, 4 mm wide coronally, 2 mm wide apically, and 6 mm high. deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) xenograft granules were used to fill the defects. All surgical sites were subsequently covered vestibular by with a resorbable membrane composed of 90% anorganic bovine bone in combination with 10% porcine collagen fibers and, occlusal, with a resorbable 3D collagen matrix membrane and a non-submerged healing was obtained.
