Pressure Bearing Device Affects Extraction Socket Remodeling of Maxillary Anterior Tooth. A Prospective Clinical Trial.

Background: Extraction socket remodeling and ridge preservation strategies have been extensively explored.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of applying a micro-titanium stent as a pressure bearing device on extraction socket remodeling of maxillary anterior tooth.

Materials And Methods: Twenty-four patients with a extraction socket of maxillary incisor were treated with spontaneous healing (control group) or by applying a micro-titanium stent as a facial pressure bearing device over the facial bone wall (test group).

[A novel technique to preserve the alveolar ridge width following tooth extraction in the maxillary frontal area].

Objective: To introduce a novel ridge preservation technique with micro-titanium plate avoiding the use of bone grafting materials, and evaluate the potential horizontal bone preservation effect of this new technique, applied on single maxillary central incisors after tooth extraction for future implant restoration.

Methods: Nine patients (six women and three men), mean age (26.0 ± 5.

[Evaluation of alveolar ridge reconstruction and esthetic result following immediate implant].

Objective: To evaluate the bone alteration subject to remodeling and analyze the esthetic result following immediate implant placement of incisors.

Methods: In this study, 20 patients (13 women, 7 men) were involved, who needed implants for incisors of maxilla. The patients received 23 immediate implants totally.
