RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: To assess and compare the clinical, radiological, and histological outcomes of socket seal surgery between two protocols: deproteinized demineralized tooth matrix (dpDTM) and freeze-dried bone allograft (FDBA) each covered with a free gingival graft. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty extraction sockets in the anterior or premolar region were randomly allocated to either the dpDTM or FDBA protocol (n = 10 per group). Measurements of the alveolar ridge changes were obtained using an intraoral scanner and cone-beam computed tomography at 3 months post-operation. Three-month post surgery, the dental implant was installed (n = 5 per group), bone biopsies were obtained for histomorphometrical and micro-computed tomography analyses. Implant stability quotients (ISQs) were determined and compared at 3 months post-implant. RESULTS: Lower significant reductions in buccal alveolar ridge height and hard tissue volume were observed in dpDTM group compared to FDBA group at 3 months (0.25 ± 0.35 mm vs. 1.60 ± 0.66 mm [p = .000] and 9.64 ± 15.39% mm3 vs. 31.45 ± 18.11% mm3 [p = .010], respectively). At the same time, lower soft tissue volume reduction was detected in the dpDTM group compared to FDBA group (4.21 ± 5.25% mm3 vs. 5.25 ± 5.79% mm3). No statistically significant difference in the percentage of mineralized tissue formation was found between dpDTM group (53.39 ± 11.16%) and FDBA group (49.90 ± 3.27%). Even though the ISQ in the dpDTM group showed a higher value than the FDBA group at 3 months post-implant, the results were without statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS: Alveolar ridge preservation using dpDTM is an efficacious procedure for providing the conditions for the development of functional and esthetic implants.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the viability of free gingival grafts (FGG) and assess clinical and radiographic changes in the alveolar ridge following socket seal surgery with or without freeze-dried bone allograft (FDBA). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-eight anterior and premolar tooth extractions were randomly allocated to 2 groups: socket graft of FDBA sealed with FGG (n = 15) and control with empty sockets sealed solely with FGG (n = 13). Photographs taken at 3, 7, 14, and 30 days post-surgery assessed FGG viability. Alveolar ridge volume was clinically evaluated via intraoral scanners before surgery and at 1 and 3 months post-surgery. CBCT scans taken immediately post-surgery and 3 months later assessed alveolar ridge dimensions. RESULTS: FGG viability in both groups increased from day 3 and reached the maximum score on day 14. Alveolar ridge volume reduction at 3 months in the FDBA group was comparable to the control group. Buccal alveolar bone height reduction was significantly higher in the FDBA group than the control group, while palatal alveolar bone height was comparable. Alveolar bone width reduction was evident but not statistically significant between the groups. The FDBA group exhibited a significant alteration in bone volume compared to the control group. CONCLUSION: Viability of FGG was not affected by graft filling materials. Sealing the socket with FGG effectively preserved socket integrity and ridge volume in minor socket defects using either graft filling material or not. This study was registered on 4 January 2021 on Thai Clinical Trials Registry (TCTR20210104001).

PURPOSE: This study aimed to analyze and compare three-dimensional volumetric bone changes and stability of simultaneously placed dental implants following sinus augmentation using deproteinized human demineralized tooth matrix (dpDTM) and deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM). METHODS: Twenty-four patients who required lateral maxillary sinus floor augmentation with simultaneous dental implant placement were randomly assigned to receive either dpDTM (n = 12) or DBBM (n = 12). Cone-beam computed tomography and resonance frequency analysis of implant stability were conducted immediately after surgery and 6 months postoperatively. Changes in the graft sinus floor and graft height volumes in the sagittal and coronal views, along with the implant stability quotient (ISQ), were analyzed and compared. RESULTS: Volumetric graft alteration was comparable between dpDTM (120.33 ± 77.48 mm3) and DBBM (108.51 ± 65.15 mm3) (p = 0.690). Reduction in the average graft height was also comparable: dpDTM group ranged from - 0.59 to - 0.93 mm and the DBBM group ranged from - 0.55 to - 0.82 mm (p > 0.05) at most examined levels. However, greater reduction in the mesial-graft height occurred in the dpDTM group (- 1.08 ± 0.70 mm vs. -0.58 ± 0.39 mm, p = 0.04). The ISQ values increased similarly in both groups to reach 70 at 6 months. CONCLUSION: dpDTM demonstrated comparable stability in graft volume and height during the healing process compared to DBBM and could serve as a viable alternative to DBBM for sinus floor augmentation with simultaneous implant placement.
