Abstract

BACK GROUND: The alveolar bone that supports the teeth is fragile and labile. It is a constant state of change since replacement of old bone by new bone is a normal physiological process. Healing of extracted socket commonly resulted in dimensional changes in alveolar dimensions. Socket preservation will prevent the morphological changes that occur in the alveolar process both vertical and horizontal aspects of the residual bone. So prosthetic replacement will become difficult because of lack of bone support. One of the recent approaches in preserving the extracted socket is by the use of autologous concentrated growth factor. AIM OF THE STUDY: The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiological effectiveness of concentrated growth factor in preserving alveolar ridge after tooth extraction. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total number of 30 tooth or root stumps indicated for extraction in 30 systemically healthy patients were selected randomly for the purpose of the study. After atraumatic extraction, the extracted sockets were treated with autologous concentrate growth factor. Clinical parameters such as socket width and radiographic analysis by CBCT were recorded at baseline and 6 months post-operatively. RESULTS: The soft tissue width of ridge, radiographic dimension of width at crest, at 5mm and 10mm and socket height between pre-operative and post-operative analysis was statistically significant. CONCLUSION: Within the limits of the present study, socket preservation using concentrated growth factor offers many advantages for patients and the clinician. However, careful patient selection and treatment planning appears to be of critical importance in achieving a predictable clinical outcome. Further randomized clinical trials are needed to monitor the soft tissues & hard tissue changes and histological observations are required to establish its regenerative potential in various field of application.
