About this trial

The aim of the current study is to compare the effect socket sealing with flowable resin composite compared to dense polytetrafluoroethylene membrane after filling the extraction site with xenograft particles in terms of soft and hard tissue changes, procedural time, post operative pain, patients' satisfaction, and cost effectiveness.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients having single non-adjacent hopeless maxillary tooth in the esthetic zone that are indicated for extraction.

Patients with healthy systemic condition.

Patients aged from 20 to 70 years old.

Good oral hygiene.

Disqualifiers

Systemic diseases or medications that might affect bone metabolism, increase surgical risk or complicate post-operative healing.

Previous bone augmentation to implant site.

Untreated periodontal diseases.

Para-functional habits such as bruxism and clenching.

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Socket preservation using xenograft and composite plug

    Procedure/Surgery

    Extraction of hopeless teeth will be followed by grafting the socket with xenograft and coverage with injected flowable composite plug which will then be stabilized using 5.0 polypropylene suture material with a figure of eight suture.

  • Socket preservation using xenograft and intentionally exposed d-PTFE

    Procedure/Surgery

    Extraction of hopeless teeth will be followed by grafting the socket with xenograft and coverage with d-PTFE membrane which will the be left exposed intentionally. This will be followed by securing the membrane using 5.0 polypropylene suture material with a figure of eight suture.
