Mix of Demineralized Freeze-Dried Bone Allograft and Deproteinized Bovine Bone Mineral: a Possible Solution for Alveolar Ridge Preservation?
Nova Southeastern University
Summary
The purpose of the study is to compare a new grafting material for alveolar ridge preservation to a commonly used and well studied material. Alveolar ridge dimensions as well as histology will be compared.
Description
Brief Background and Goal: Dimensional changes following extractions are inevitable. Many techniques and combinations of materials have been studied and shown to be effective at minimizing these changes. Although no material has been able to fully preserve the ridge, xenografts have been shown to be the most effective at maintaining the volume, however, the use of demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) results in the most vital bone when evaluated histologically. These factors are important when planning for a successful future implant supported prosthesis. A new material that combi…
