Assessment of the Impact of Neocement Inject P® (Beta-Tricalcium Phosphate) on Bone Volume in Alveolar Ridge Preservation After Tooth Extraction
Recruiting now · Early Phase 1
Conditions studied: Tooth Extraction, Tooth Extraction Site Healing, Alveolar Bone Grafting, Alveolar Bone Loss
In brief
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to assess whether β-TCP (Beta-Tricalcium Phosphate) improves alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) in patients who need tooth extraction. The main question it aims to answer is whether using β-TCP for alveolar ridge preservation has a positive effect on bone volume compared with natural healing. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does β-TCP improve ridge preservation compared with natural healing? Researchers will compare β-TCP grafted sockets to natural healing sockets to see if β-TCP better preserves ridge volume. Participants will: Have a tooth indicated for extraction. Be assigned to either β-TCP or natural healing. Undergo CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) and intra-oral scanning after extraction and after six months of healing to measure horizontal and vertical resorption and bone density.
