About this trial

the purpose of this study is to compare the efficiency of non-resorbable membrane versus resorbable membrane in guided bone regeneration in atrophic posterior mandible.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Mandibular posterior atrophic alveolar ridge Required horizontal bone augmentation procedures prior to implant placement.

Alveolar bone height suitable for implant placement.

Free of any local or systemic condition that may contraindicate ridge expansion procedure

The capacity to understand and accept the conditions of the study.

Disqualifiers

Heavy smokers (i.e., 2 or more packs of cigarettes per day);

Insufficient oral hygiene

Acute local or systemic infection

Patients with any systemic disease that may affect bone healing;

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • guided bone regeneration using Resorbable membrane pericardium

    Procedure/Surgery

    A resorbable pericardium membrane will be fixed with titanium pins on the lingual bone plate (2-3mm from the bone crest) and on the buccal bone plate allowing for packing of particulate mix of bone graft (50% Xenograft: 50% Autogenous graft). Overfilling of the graft will be respected to compensate for future resorption. The membrane will be stretched over the graft ensuring maximum immobilization of the graft.

  • guided bone regeneration using non resorbable ptfe membrane

    Procedure/Surgery

    A non-resorbable polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane will be fixed with titanium tacks on the lingual bone plate (2-3mm from the bone crest) and on the buccal bone plate allowing for packing of particulate mix of bone graft (50% Xenograft: 50% Autogenous graft). Overfilling of the graft will be respected to compensate for future resorption.

Treatment groups

30 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups

Group B: guided bone regeneration using non resorbable membrane polytetrafluoroethylene PTFEExperimental treatment 1 intervention

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Osstell Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ)

measure the implant stability in both group using osstell machine ,The ISQ scale ranges from 1 to 99, with higher values indicating greater stability

Time frame
6 months after the surgery at the time of implant placement
2

change from baseline in pain as measured by the visual analogue scale VAS

pain sensation measured by VAS visual analogue scale score of both group the VAS ranges from 0 to 100 with 0 indicating no pain and higher scores indicating greater pain. scores are measured on a 100 mm VAS

Time frame
baseline,12 weeks

Secondary outcomes

1

Horizontal bone gain measured using CBCT in mm

Participants will undergo radiographic evaluation using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) performed preoperatively, immediately post-operatively, and six months post-operatively. Linear horizontal ridge width will be measured at standardized reference points on the CBCT scans using digital caliper measurement tools within the CBCT analysis software. The outcome will assess the amount of horizontal bone gain (in millimeters) achieved following the augmentation procedure.

Time frame
6 months
2

Qualitative bone assessment using histological and histomorphometric analysis to measure the % of bone

A core biopsy will be obtained from the grafted site six months post-operatively to evaluate the quality of regenerated bone. The specimen will undergo histological and histomorphometric analysis using standard light microscopy

Time frame
6 months
