Carbonate apatite (COAp) is a major inorganic bone component and an effective bone substitute. To clarify the function of COAp, we compared differences among COAp, hydroxyapatite (HAp), and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) by focusing on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that have a role in wound healing. For in vivo experiments, maxillary molars were removed and the bone substitute was inserted. MSC accumulation around extraction sockets was significantly promoted in COAp and β-TCP groups. For in vitro experiments, MSCs were cultured with bone substitutes. The differentiation potential and amount of calcium deposition were significantly lower in COAp and HAp groups than in the β-TCP group. Increases in insulin-like growth factor-I and vascular endothelial growth factor were found only in the COAp group. COAp-filled extraction sockets accumulated MSCs, and MSCs cultured in the presence of COAp produced large amounts of growth factors. These results suggest that COAp promotes healing of tooth extraction sockets.

Objectives: As a result of the blood clot breaking down or vanishing, a condition can occasionally arise following tooth extraction, especially after traumatic extraction, that leaves the exposed bone in the socket looking dry. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence and risk factors associated with fibrinolytic alveolitis following extraction of permanent teeth in Jordan.
Materials And Methods: Data were collected over a period of 6 months from the Dental Management System for every patient who had permanent teeth extraction at the Oral Surgery Clinic, Faculty of Dentistry/ Jordan University of Science and Technology.
Alveolar bone supports and anchors teeth. The parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) pathway plays a key role in alveolar bone biology. Salt inducible kinases (SIKs) are important downstream regulators of PTH/PTHrP signaling in the appendicular skeleton, where SIK inhibition increases bone formation and trabecular bone mass.

Objectives: This large-scale retrospective study aims to evaluate and compare the long-term survival rates of dental implants placed immediately after tooth extraction (type 1) versus those placed at a later stage (types 2, 3, and 4). Additionally, it examines how patient characteristics and implant site conditions influence the choice of implant placement.
Materials And Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed patient data from 10 university dental clinics between 2011 and 2022 and examined dental implant treatment outcomes.

The socket-shield procedure focuses on soft- and hard-tissue preservation of the extraction socket in an immediate implant procedure. Selective preservation of tooth (SPOT) is a tooth-guided protocol for socket-shield preparation for both anterior and posterior teeth. It allows for consistent apex removal as well as shield preparation, implant site preparation, and immediate implant placement.

Purpose: The primary aim of this in vitro study was to investigate the primary implant stability obtained in immediate and late implant placement scenarios. Secondary aims evaluated the effect of two distinct implant macro-designs and examined the correlation between resonance frequency analysis (RFA) and final insertion torque.
Methods: Partially edentulous maxillary models including six single sites simulating extraction sockets and healed alveolar ridges were used.
