Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Oral Surgery
  • Periodontology

Background:

  • Alveolar bone volume decreases post-extraction due to natural remodeling.
  • Reduced bone height and width complicate prosthodontic esthetics and dental implant placement.
  • Socket preservation aims to maintain alveolar bone dimensions and prevent atrophy after extraction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current materials and techniques for socket preservation for clinicians.
  • To provide an overview of methods for maintaining alveolar ridge dimensions post-extraction.

Main Methods:

  • Review of clinical trials and literature on socket preservation techniques.
  • Analysis of materials including bone grafts, substitutes, barrier membranes, and platelet concentrates.
  • Evaluation of emerging approaches like growth factors and tissue engineering.

Main Results:

  • Immediate implant placement shows unfavorable results for socket preservation.
  • Bone grafts, substitutes, and membranes demonstrate favorable alveolar bone regeneration and ridge preservation.
  • Autogenous and allogenous bone grafts are recommended for their osteogenic potential.
  • Autologous platelet concentrates yield mixed results; growth factors and tissue engineering show future promise but need more trials.

Conclusions:

  • Alveolar ridge resorption post-extraction causes bone deficiencies impacting esthetics and implant longevity.
  • Clinical interventions like bone grafts and substitutes are effective for ridge preservation.
  • Growth factors and tissue engineering require further clinical validation before widespread adoption.
