Interventions

  • Allograft/Xenograft — DEVICE
    Alveolar ridge preservation of a single extraction socket site with a mixture of demineralized cortical bone substitute vallos®" and xenograft Bio-Oss®.

Study Details

This research aims to compare the effectiveness of two bone grafting materials on preserving jawbone integrity after tooth extraction. Following extraction, the jawbone surrounding the removed tooth can shrink, affecting future implant placement. By placing a bone graft material in the extraction socket, we aim to maintain adequate jawbone space for future implants. This study compares how well the mixture of vallos®f (human source bone) and Bio-Oss (animal source bone) \[test\], and vallos® only \[control\] grafting materials work. Participants with at least one tooth planned for extraction and subsequent implant placement are sought for this study. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the mixture of vallos®f and Bio-Oss (test) group or the vallos® only (control) group. Throughout the approximately 2-year study duration, participants will undergo oral exams, x-rays, surgical procedures, and follow-up visits. All participants will undergo routine tooth extraction, bone graft material placement, and dental implant placement. After the crown is placed on the implant, participants will attend follow-up visits. Participation in the study is voluntary, and the alternative is to continue routine dental care. Risks include minor discomfort from procedures such as tooth extraction and implant placement. The major benefit of participation in the study is the preservation of jaw dimensions following extraction, which will simplify the placement of a dental implant.

Arms

  • Experimental: Alveolar ridge preservation with Allograft/Xenograft group
    The patients in both groups will go through the same treatment but with two different bone grafting materials depending on the assigned group. The patients in this group will have alveolar ridge preservation with the mixture of demineralized cortical allograft vallos®f and xenograft bone substitute called Bio-Oss®.
  • Active Comparator: Alveolar ridge preservation with Allograft group
    The patients in both groups will go through the same treatment but with two different bone grafting materials depending on the assigned group. The patients in this group will have alveolar ridge preservation with mineralized cortico-cancellous bone substitute called vallos®.

Primary Outcome Measure

Three-dimensional hard and soft tissue change using CBCT/ intraoral scan [ Time Frame: Over the course of the study (From the time of study enrollment Alveolar Ridge Preservation [Visit 2] to 1-year post implant-supported crown delivery [Visit 11]). ]
