Autogenous Demineralized Dentin Graft With High Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid in Ridge Preservation: Pilot Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The current trial assessed for the first time radiographic and histological alterations, following alveolar ridge preservation (ARP), using autogenous demineralized dentin graft carried in 0.2% high molecular weight sodium hyaluronate (ADDG+HA; test group) versus autogenous demineralized dentin graft (ADDG, control group) alone.

Material and methods

Thirty patients (n = 30) with non-restorable single-rooted teeth were randomly assigned into two groups (n = 15/group). Following extraction, ARP was performed using either ADDG solely or ADDG+HA. Bucco-lingual alveolar ridge width (BLRW; primary outcome), buccal (BRH) and lingual ridge height (LRH), percentage of newly formed bone, soft tissue and residual graft in human biopsies histologically, as well as patients' pa
