Soft Tissue Healing After Tooth Extraction

Statement of the problem: Tooth extraction results in hard and soft tissue loss which complicates prosthodontic rehabilitation, So different techniques of alveolar ridge preservation should be done to maintain hard and soft tissue dimensions.

Aim: The aim of this study is to compare the effect of amnion membrane versus chorion membrane on soft tissue healing among socket preservation procedure.

About this study

Aim: The aim of this study is to compare the effect of amnion membrane versus chorion membrane on soft tissue healing among socket preservation procedure.

Materials and Methods: This parallel arm, randomized controlled clinical trial will involve systemically free patients with remaining roots or badly decayed teeth in the posterior region not indicated for immediate implant placement. They will be randomly allocated to two equal groups. Group A (n=95) socket will be grafted with HAM particulate and the socket will be covered with amnion membrane, and group B (n=95) socket will be grafted with HAM particulate and the socket will be covered with chorion membrane. Soft tissue healing will be assessed (1ry outcome) every day for the first week, day after day second week, once in third and fourth week. Postoperative pain and swelling will be recorded daily by the patient for the 1st two weeks post surgically. Postoperative medication will be prescribed to the patient and postoperative instructions will be explained in detail. Follow-up will be performed to assess the parameters and to ensure performing proper oral hygiene. Data collected will be tabulated and statistically analyzed.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients who need simple extraction not indicated for immediate implant placement.

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients with inability or anticipated failure to maintain adequate oral hygiene.
  • Pregnant or breast-feeding mothers.
  • Any medical condition or therapy that can affect healing.

Treatment and study plan

Amnion membrane.

Procedure

the amnion membrane tucked over the extraction socket then the socket plug will be maintained in place with approximating sutures using 5-0 resorbable suture material

Chorion membrane

Procedure

chorion membrane tucked over the extraction socket then the socket plug will be maintained in place with approximating sutures using 4-0 resorbable suture material.

Primary outcomes

  1. Soft tissue healing

    Time frame: every day for the first week, day after day second week, once in third and fourth week

    Surface area/intraoral scanner

Secondary outcomes

  1. Healing index

    Time frame: every day for the first week, day after day second week, once in third and fourth week

    Score (from o to 10, were 0 is no healing and 10 complete healing of tissue )
