About this study

Official title: Autogenous Bone Block Versus Extended Platelet Rich Fibrin Block Used for Horizontal Augmentation of Atrophic Esthetic Zone of Maxillary Ridge Associated With Simultaneous Implant Placement

The aim of the study is directed to assess the clinical and radiographic outcomes of autogenous bone block versus extended PRF block used for horizontal augmentation of atrophied esthetic area of maxillary ridge associated with simultaneous implant placement.

Read the detailed description

Twenty implants inserted in 16 patients will be randomly and uniformly distributed into two equal groups:

Group I: Ten dental implants will be inserted simultaneously in eight patients with horizontal ridge augmentation done by symphyseal onlay autogenous block technique.

Group II: Ten dental implants will be inserted simultaneously in nine patients with horizontal ridge augmentation done by onlay extended platelet rich fibrin technique using a mixture of allografts and xenografts.

Being tested
group I: autogenous bone block, extented platelet rich fibrin

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • group I: autogenous bone blockProcedure or surgery

    Full thichness flap is done and the implant is inserted in place. After that, an autogenous block is harvested from the symphyseal area and fixed in the area of the defect

  • extented platelet rich fibrinProcedure or surgery

    Full thickness flap is made and the implant is inserted in place. After that the platelet rich fibrin is collected from the patient blood and heated to produce e-platelet rich fibrin, mixed with a mixture of allograft and xenograft to make e-platelet rich fibrin block placed in the defect area

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. bone width

    The horizontal bone gain resulted from the ridge augmentation was measured at 2,4,6 mm apical to the alveolar crest level, then the mean was calculated. This calculation was done at T0 (BG0), T3 (BG3) and T6 (BG6).

    Measured: immediately after augmentation and implant placement (T0), and after 3 months (at time of implant loading) (T3) and after six months from implant loading (T6) (totally, 9 months follow up)

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. bone area

    The horizontal bone gain area resulted from the ridge augmentation was measured at T0 (BG0), T3 (BG3) and T6 (BG6).

    Measured: immediately after augmentation and implant placement (T0), and after 3 months (at time of implant loading) (T3) and after six months from implant loading (T6) (totally, 9 months follow up)

  2. marginal bone loss

    On the cross-sectional view, a line was drawn buccally and lingually just parallel to the long axis of the implant, starting at the most cervical bone implant contact to the apex of the implant. Bone height in millimeters was recorded at immediate postsurgical phase after implant insertion. Vertical bone loss was calculated by subtracting recorded marginal bone level value buccally and lingullay after 3 months (at time of implant loading (T3) and after 6 months of implant loading (T6) from immediate postoperative value (T0).

    Measured: immediately after augmentation and implant placement (T0), and after 3 months (at time of implant loading) (T3) and after six months from implant loading (T6) (totally, 9 months follow up)

  3. Relative Alveolar Bone Density

    All density records were collected from the cross-sectional view of CBCT using the Hounsfield unit (HU) according to Misch's classification. ROI tool was used representing the average estimated bone density at 3 mid-buccal levels of the placed implant at T0 (immediately after surgery) and after 3 months (at time of implant loading (T3) and after 6 months of implant loading (T6), in comparison to the primary measures.

    Measured: immediately after augmentation and implant placement (T0), and after 3 months (at time of implant loading) (T3) and after six months from implant loading (T6) (totally, 9 months follow up)

  4. Bone volume

    The volume of the gained bone resulted from the ridge augmentation was measured at T0 (BG0), T3 (BG3) and T6 (BG6).

    Measured: immediately after augmentation and implant placement (T0), and after 3 months (at time of implant loading) (T3) and after six months from implant loading (T6) (totally, 9 months follow up)

  5. Postoperative Pain

    • By using a 10-point Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for assessment of pain by the patient on the 1st, 3rd, and 7th days after augmentation surgery. (0-1=None, 2-4=Mild, 5-7=Moderate, 8-10=Severe)

    Measured: on the 1st, 3rd, and 7th days after augmentation surgery

  6. Landry Healing Index for Wound Healing Evaluation

    • The area of operation was examined by using healing index by Landry et al., this index scores clinical signs and symptoms of infection as redness, hotness, pus discharge, bleeding and pain. In addition to that, any manifestations of wound healing disturbance including wound dehiscence and exposure of underlying bone graft were recorded carefully.

    Measured: immediately at 14th day during suture removal visit, one month and 3 months after surgery.

  7. Modified sulcus bleeding Index (mSBI)

    Clinical signs and symptoms of inflammation of peri-implant mucosa were graded using criteria of mSBI. It was recorded immediately after implant loading and after 6 months of loading at four aspects around the implants; buccal, lingual, mesial, and distal. The four readings were averaged and approximated to nearest 0.5.

    Measured: It was recorded immediately after implant loading and after 6 months of loading.

  8. Peri-implant pocket depth (PPD)

    Depth of the peri-implant sulcus was recorded immediately after implant loading and after 6 months of loading. The distance between the gingival margin and the base of the pocket was recorded using a graduated periodontal probe with light force to avoid undue tissue damage and over-extension into the healthy tissue. The probe was inserted buccally, mesially, lingually and distally around each implant in a line parallel to the implant vertical axis until the blunt end of the probe reached the base of the pocket. The four readings were averaged and approximated to nearest 0.5mm.

    Measured: immediately after implant loading and after 6 months of loading

  9. Measurement of implant stability

    The primary Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) was measured by using a resonance frequency analyzer (Osstell device) immediately after the placement (T0) and after three months at time of implant loading (T3), then after six months from implant loading (T6). RFA technology depends on fork tuning principle. A Smart Peg was attached to the implant and torqued to 10 Ncm and then the peg was made to vibrate just like a tuning fork by the Osstell device. The purpose here was to find the resonance frequency with the strongest vibration.

    Measured: immediately after the placement (T0) and after three months at time of implant loading (T3), then after six months from implant loading (T6).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing group I: autogenous bone block and extented platelet rich fibrin in people with Extented Platelet Rich Fibrin Block, run by Naira elnagar at 1 site in Egypt.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

What does the primary outcome measure?

bone width (time frame: immediately after augmentation and implant placement (T0), and after 3 months (at time of implant loading) (T3) and after six months from implant loading (T6) (totally, 9 months follow up)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
