About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Atrophy; Bone focused on measuring Bone Regeneration

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 90 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients in need of an implant-supported rehabilitation
  • Patients requiring bone regeneration
  • Healthy patients
  • Full-mouth plaque score (FMPS) and full-mouth bleeding score (FMBS) ≤ 15%
  • Sufficient mesiodistal and interocclusal space
  • At least 6 months of follow-up

Exclusion Criteria:

  • An American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification ≥ III
  • General contraindications for surgical treatment or implant placement
  • Untreated periodontitis
  • Smoking
  • Excessive alcohol consumption
  • Any drug or medication known to affect oral status and bone turnover or contraindicate surgical treatment
  • No residual keratinized tissue at the experimental area
  • Unwillingness to return for follow-up examinations

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Active Comparator

Experimental

Arm Label

Guided bone regeneration

Bone block

Arm Description

Patients will be treated with guided bone regeneration.

Patients will be treated with bone blocks using the Khoury technique.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Bone volume
the bone volume will be analyzed with the Cone Beam Computed Tomography scan

Secondary Outcome Measures

Periodontal parameters
the periodontal parameters will be analyzed clinically with the periodontal probe and measured in millimeters. All the periodontal parameters will be combined to describe the periodontal status of the patient.
Wound healing
the wound healing will be recorded with the Early Wound Healing Score (EHS) ranging from 0 to 10 which includes the following parameters: clinical signs of re-epithelialization: 0 points, visible distance between incision margins; 3 points, incision margins in contact; 6 points, merged incision margins. clinical signs of haemostasis: 0 points, bleeding at the incision margins; 1 point, presence of fibrin at the incision margins; 2 points, absence of fibrin on the incision margins. clinical signs of inflammation: 0 points, redness involving >50% of the incision length and/or pronounced swelling; 1 point, redness involving <50% of the incision length; 2 points, absence of redness along the incision length.
Histological analysis
The histological analysis will be performed harvesting a sample during the implant placement. Bone biopsies including both native and regenerated bone will be subjected to digital scanning to analyze the characteristics of newly formed bone, the remaining grafted material, integration of grafted material with newly formed bone, soft tissue, and local inflammation. Histomorphometric analyses will be performed to measure the following parameters: bone tissue area , graft material area , soft tissue area. Bone tissue area , graft material area , soft tissue area will be expressed relative to the total area.
