Assessment of Bone Volume Changes in Immediate Implant Placement Using Allograft Versus Xenograft in Mandibular Molars

Assessment of Bone Volume Changes in Immediate Implant Placement Using Allograft Versus Xenograft in Mandibular Molars: Randomized Clinical Trial

Twenty recruited patients indicated for immediate implant placement in mandibular molar sites are divided into two groups, with each group containing ten patients. One group assigned for placement of xenograft after molar extraction and immediate implant placement, while the other group received allograft as space-filling material.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients with non-restorable mandibular molars
• Both sexes with age range from 25 years to 40 years
• Good oral hygiene
• Adequate alveolar bone dimensions for implant replacement
• Adequate bone volume after extraction to achieve primary stability of the immediate implant
• Co-operative patient

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients with any systemic disease as uncontrolled diabetes or osteoporosis
• Heavy smokers with smokers more than 10 cigarettes per day
• Pregnancy
• Patients with any signs of active infection or pus formation
• Patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiotherapy, immunocompromised patients
